Plastic Bags are killing us

Go. Read. (you may have to click on an ad or click on "if you can't see the article..." )

Take your own bags to the market. Plastic bags are not recyclable. They are downcyclable - meaning they can be made into something that can't be recycled any further. But most end up in waterways or oceans, where they kill. If you don't bring your own bags, ask for a paper bag. Trees will grow again. Oil and rainforests will not.
