Whole Foods Market Is Banning Plastic Bags Starting On Earth Day

The latest success in the Green War now seems to be plastic bags. Whole Foods, a leading natural food chain store, is banning disposable plastic grocery bags making it easier to shop for natural and organic food products and help the environment. Forever ending the ‘paper vs. plastic’ bag question, Whole Foods is encouraging customers to bring their own reusable bags. Whole Foods is also selling reusable grocery bags made from recycled plastic bottles for only 99 cents or providing paper bags made of 100% recycled (and recyclable) materials.

Whole Foods is committed to eliminating disposable plastic grocery bags in their stores by April 22nd which coincidentally is Earth Day! So, on your next trip to Whole Foods, remember to ‘Bring Your Own Bags!’
