As far as garbage is concerned, I agree, plastic bags are necessary. But I strongly disagree with the grocery size plastic bags being used for single use dog waste. What a waste!!! Even the smaller grocery veggie bags or buying dog waste bags seems a lot more reasonable IMHO.
I agree. We use biodegradable dog bags which are 1/3 the size of a grocery bag.
