Every year I help in cleanup activities and I see how many plastic bags are littering our community. Plastic bags and plastic bottles are a primary source of trash in our environment.

Nothing we use once and then toss should be littering our sidewalks or swirling around in the ocean for hundreds of years. Plastic litter harms wildlife, hurts tourism, and with all the alternatives available it is absolutely unnecessary.

So I am very happy to announce I just added my business, Kahl Consultants, to a petition urging CA state senators to support AB 1998, a statewide ban on plastic grocery bags.

I recommend that you add your own business to the petition too!

Do it at the Environment California Web site.
