A recycling program that focuses on the plastic bags used by shoppers was kicked off at the state capitol Tuesday by DCA Commissioner Mike Beatty and the chairs of the two committees on natural resources, Sen. Ross Tolleson (R-Perry) and Rep. Lynn Smith (R-Newnan).
Called “A Bag’s Life,” the recycling program has identified nearly 750 locations at grocery and retail stores where consumers can dispose of their plastic shopping bags.
