Yesterday in our newspaper, there was an article about the fact that Whole Foods is discontinuing the use of disposable bags in their store. They have always been very forward-looking in many areas but I was even more impressed with what I read in this article. We have their flagship store here in Austin and it's an amazing place. I give them a lot of credit for doing their part in conserving our resources. Natalie has already gone that direction, carrying re-useable bags with her everywhere she goes.
I guess it's time for me to get on board too. Easier said than done, I think. But yay for Whole Foods!

I tell myself everyday I'm gonna buy reuseable bags. But alas I don't. I do recycle the plastic bags though.
cool. you know, i've never been to a whole foods before. crazy, i know.
Its an excellent idea, a very good investment. Half the time I'm taking a plastic bag there to re-use... the Target bags are big AND strong. Very excellent for recycling.
yes, mama! time to jump on the bandwagon.
I'm pretty sure I would lose re-useable bags....but i think it's a good idea. I'm not as good at saving the environment as I probably should be....Lance keeps putting those compact flourescent lightbulbs everywhere, but I hate the color of them, so, I keep replacing them with the good 'ol incandescant...Al Gore would hate me...
I just bought a whole bunch of reusable bags at Trader Joes. I think they are fabulous. Love Whole Foods!
I've got some cool re-usable bags I got at Costco of all places. The people at Walmart think I'm some sort of freak, but the nice HEB people "get it".
That Whole Foods is awesome--and smart, too. I love the reusable bags!
