Whole Foods To Eliminate Plastic Bags

I have never shopped at Whole Foods, because there are none in my area, however I have always heard good things about them. In fact, they have been a relatively influential firm in the world of grocery stores, according to this article.

Whole Foods has announced that they will eliminate the use of plastic bags, because they are environmentally unsound. The logo on their website says “Bring Your Own Bag, Save The Planet”. These plastic bags consume oil to make, and never break down in a landfill. (The country of China has also banned these plastic bags.) So I applaud Whole Foods, and I call on local Supermarkets (Wegmans, Tops) to follow suit.
