The benefits of recycling outweigh the costs.
Plastic grocery bags should not be banned. I don't mind if they ban plastic bags for non-food items. However, when it comes to produce and other foodstuff, I think those particular plastic bags are necessary. Also, I always reuse the ones I receive at the checkout.

Global warming is a problem primarily caused by humans; higher average temperatures are partly or entirely the result of human actions. I would say that there's enough evidence to confirm that as humans we play some part in the global warming effect. However, there are scientific trends seen in other planets that lead me to believe we're just expediting the process a little bit, but "we d
