Bring Your Bag Outreach Week!
Posted to Ban the Bag on Oct-03-11.
“Bring Your Bag“ Education and Outreach Week is Coming, Get involved!
We’ve partnered with the City of Portland Bureau of Planning and Sustainability to help educate the public about the city-wide plastic bag ban going into effect on October 15, 2011. We will be doing outreach at local grocery stores to remind the public to bring their reusable bags. Come join us at one or all of the following locations after the implementation of the plastic bag ban.
