It is inspiring to see how many places around the world have banned plastic bags.
Rwanda.
China.
Mexico City.
Toronto.
Mumbai.
Bangladesh banned single use plastic bags in 2002 after it became clear that plastic bags greatly exacerbated the devastating flooding of 1988 and 1998.
And lots more.
England....? NOT YET.
