Plastic Bags in Ossining

How do you feel about the use of plastic bags in Ossining/Croton?

How do you feel about plastic bags in Ossining? Would you like to see us follow the footsteps other towns and communities have taken and get rid of them in our business and streets?

When in Hawaii, I heard about how the bags blow into the oceans and turtles and other planet life wind up eating them and killing them, so it made me thing about how we use them in excess without even thinking....how when we food shop, get take-out....it seems everywhere you go their offered whether it's needed or not....buying a stick of gum - how about a double-bagged plastic bag for that?

What are your feelings Ossining? Will you comment below and/or go to Change.org and tell me?
