Battle of the Bag
March 11, 2008 - 06:35 PM

http://www.cbc.ca/doczone/battleofthebag/video.html

CBC ran a documentary about the invention and the elimination of the plastic bag.

Plastic bags. Billions of the handy throwaway items are used around the world every year. They take hundreds of years to biodegrade and have sparked heated debates in cities from San Francisco to Mumbai.

This documentary gets a handle on the bag battle. From the big oil employees who brought the bag to America - to the Nobel laureate fighting for a bag ban - to the retired German schoolteacher who holds the world's record for the most plastic bags, the film takes stock of this icon of convenience culture.
