I didn’t realize this had started. See them out front all the time. I do see fewer plastic bags blowing around these days.

The only places I still see plastic bags is restaurants.

I meant that I see fewer of them blowing up and down the road or caught in trees.

All the plastic is now wrapped on vodka sodas. Which is state law. So all that plastic gets chucked in the trash. State literally forces more waste for no reason

I didnt really elablorate my bad. There is plastic wrap on all liquor type seltzers. I throw away hundreds a month. Its state law to wrap these for shipping as they contain liquor. So its a giant waste of plastic that creates a shit ton of trash. For no reason. And yet, they dont want people to use plastic bags. To me, its hypocritical.

I didn’t know that. I thought they just came in cardboard boxes like cases of beer. I find the cans all the time. I collect them and bring them to the Lions Club by the garbage bag full.

Anything with vodka in it or whiskey like a high noon or jack daniels jack and coke 4 pack come wrapped in plastic. White claws and regular seltzers come in cardboard. Which we recycle. apparently were not supposed to take the high noon cans for refund anymore. At least, thats what the guy who takes all the cans said.
