Pennsylvanians use almost 4.6 billion plastic bags every year, and each bag typically only has a lifespan of 20 to 30 minutes, or the time it takes to drive home from the store. It is high time for Pittsburgh to ban the use of single-use plastic bags or, at the minimum, implement strategies to discourage their use.
Plastic bags are not easily recycled and are a common source of pollution. Plastic is produced from crude oil, so the continued use of plastics can contribute to the global release of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Teachers unions are the problem. They strike often and mostly for the same two reasons: more money and more benefits. They say they care about the kids. Right. Then advocate for the return to in-school learning for all districts, and stop striking. Outlaw teachers strikes in Pennsylvania. I don’t think kids are learning at home they’re in Walmart with their grandparents.
