If you require plastic bags shopping for your business or for a commercial environment then look no further. In terms of the total waste volume in the ACT plastic shopping bags comprise only a very small fraction. While they are a highly visible component, 60 million plastic shopping bags weigh less than 60 tonnes. This is insignificant against the 30,000 tonnes of food that, according to the ACT Conservation Council, goes to landfill in the ACT every year from the commercial sector alone. ThatÕs 30,000 tonnes of waste that could be diverted from landfill and recycled as compost if the government had the will and foresight to introduce a commercial composting facility.
