Hawaii: Message in the Waves (Plastic Waste)

[Cali Hi]

San Francisco has gotten rid of plastic bags at a lot of stores, with more to come. I have noticed less of them blowing down the streets, and that is very nice. The laws here wont cover small independent stores though. I guess they think it could be too much of a financial burden for them. My Walgreens has started asking if I need a bag, It's nice because I always had to tell them more than once that I didn't need a bag (just to carry my half and half across the street)
I too forget my re useable bags sometimes, change is hard, but I'm learning, and soon it will just be another habit.

Aloha,
