For Christmas my aunt gave me a Chico Bag. Picking one of these up is a small step that individuals can take towards cutting down on plastic bag waste. Check out ChicoBag.com for more.
This is the sort of care for the earth, the Creation, that we should be moving towards. Humanity as a whole should start to view itself more as the steward of the earth.
