The Delaware Chapter of the Sierra Club joins the Brandywine Sprouts in support of a statewide ban in Delaware on the provision by retail stores of free non-biodegradable, single-use plastic bags, and we urge statewide elected officials to pass legislation to that effect.This action will promote the health and safety of wildlife, watersheds, coastal ecosystems and marine environments.  It will also protect the natural beauty of our communities, conserve our oil supply, increase the longevity of landfill space, and reduce trash management costs to taxpayers.  Read more about this initiative at www.BringYourOwnBag.us
