Our mission is to eliminate the distribution and use of harmful plastic bags in Illinois. Together, we can encourage the Illinois General Assembly to pass our very own, state-wide plastic bag ban. With countless cities, counties, and states across the nation having successfully implemented their own, it's the next step in making Illinois greener.

IT'S POSSIBLE
--------------- A number of grocery stores have already launched their own missions to reduce plastic, including Trader Joes and Whole Foods. Trader Joe's provides biodegradable & compostable produce bags, Whole Foods offers 10 cents back for using a reusable bag, and neither store supplies single-use plastic bags. |
We conducted a survey to find out just how many Illinois residents support our mission. After collecting data from over 600 participants, we found that 96% of individuals agree that plastic bags are harming our environment. Many people of Illinois want action to be taken. We are not alone.
