Looking around my house, there is plastic everywhere. Plastic bags, trash containers, toys, you name it. All of this plastic is accumulating in our landfills and oceans and it will never go away. The documentary Synthetic Sea - Plastic in the Open Ocean is a disturbing but informative piece:

It feels a bit overwhelming, but there are some simple solutions that are easy to take today: biodegradable plastic products. We found a site devoted to everything biodegradable and they are having a SALE! I've been using the trash bags, they are not as sturdy as traditional plastic bags, so I don't fill them all the way but I don't feel so bad about throwing more of them away.
