Project Outline
Our plan is to meet with major stores such as Reasors and Target to try and convince them to make their plastic bags made out of recycled plastic. We will try and go as far as to give the stores an idea to start charging for every bag needed to push the idea of reusing bags. Another idea we have is to meet with QuikTrip corporate to ask them to start using recycled plastic too. We will even introduce the idea of giving a much more reduced price for refills without using a new cup. We will also think up some easy tips for stores to reduce their carbon footprint without a big increase of funds.
