Plastic bag recycling practices differ from area to area around the United States.

In some places, plastic bags have become a big topic of conversation.

All sides agree that changing consumer bag habits saves natural resources and promotes energy conservation.

There is disagreement on the appropriate policies for promoting the different positions.

The picture shows a grocery store that actively promotes recycling for their plastic bags.

The City of San Francisco recently passed a Plastic Bag Reduction Ordinance.

It requires the use of either "recyclable paper bags, and/or compostable plastic bags, and/or reusable bags" by all stores in the city, under threat of penalty.

Other areas promote a bring your reusable bag policy (often a cloth bag), without a mandatory plastic bag requirement.
