The summer after they passed the plastic bag ban, I worked near the SF bay. Nearly every day, I'd watch a garbage scow go out full, and come back empty.

I often wonder if those scows are still operating. I'd guess one load put as much plastic in the bay as a year of litter.




You’re saying the city is dumping plastic in the bay? I may be misunderstanding your comment.


Someone definitely used to, even after the bag ban. No idea if they still do.
