Hello,
As you may know I am doing Environmental Illustrations with the I Spy A Bag project on FB, instagram & twitter.
I am in NYC and currently drawing posts about plastic bags as the 5¢ fee bill just passed in the city but is in danger with a preemption bill in the senate.
I wanted to do something about the composition of plastic bags but the only info I found are dated of 2010.
Do you know if animal fat is still used to manufacture plastic bags?
-I apologize if this topic has been discussed already –
Thank you so much for your work !
Dorothee
It seems like it is. Here are a couple of links:
