#1 Plastic Bag Challenge


The Winners of the First Carroll Park Climate Challenge

Andrea and Ernie Kohagura

B.Y.O.B. -- Bring Your Own Bags

Andrea and Ernie avoided 27 plastic bags by bringing their own bags to the grocery store.

They also heroically gave their reusable bags to people in front of them in line who forgot

their reusable bags.. Way to go, Andrea and Ernie!

We also want to recognize Diana who, when she realized that she forgot her reusable bags in her car, actually exited

the market and retreived them instead of getting new plastic bags at check-out.

Kudos also to Michael Lester who thought twice about getting a shopping bag for the birthday gift-bag he bought.
