Many of these end up in the ocean with all the other plastic bits and pieces examples of which can be seen on a walk along the beach. We managed for many years without single use plastic bags. There are plenty of alternatives already available. Plastic bags are not biodegradable and remain in the environment. Many other states and countries around the world have already banned plastic bags. It's time we in NSW took up the challenge.
