Day Without A Bag
December 15, 2011
Welcome to a Day Without A Bag. On Thursday, December 15th, we are asking holiday shoppers and retailers to forego single-use, plastic and paper shopping bags in favor of reusable bags. Join residents in the San Diego Region, and throughout the state, in pledging to use a reusable shopping bag whenever you shop. It’s a simple, yet powerful step you can take to “green” your community and help protect the environment. The purpose of the event is to educate and raise awareness of the need to keep communities, waterways, and beaches clean via litter prevention and promote a ‘greener’ holiday season through reuse. Single-use items create more trash, and when they become litter, can sometimes create pollution in our local waterways. On December 15, 2011, reusable bags will be given away at numerous locations throughout the county. Plus, several stores will be offering a variety of one day special incentives to help support the change to reusables.
