Terri - that is a good point too. But ultimately some will not care about the charge per bag and it still would not change theri ways.
It reminds me of when I was young and Cokes came in glass bottles. You were charged a "deposit" and then when you returned it to the store you got your deposit back. Some people could not be bothered to take a bottle back to the store for 10 cents and would just throw it in the trash (or worse on the side of the road). I am thinking it was 10 cents per bottle (this was in the 70's). My mom used to let me keep any money for bottles that we turned in and I used to always be on the lookout for bottles and I would find a lot, so I could earn a decent amount or a young kid turning in the bottles each week.
