Seattle Will Charge Shoppers for Disposable Bags Next Year

Starting January 2009, shoppers in Seattle will be charged a 20-cent fee for every paper or plastic bag used at a grocery, drug, or convenience stores, becoming the first U.S. city to charge a fee instead of banning disposable bags altogether. Reusable totes are the way of the future!
