Hey Marissa, we are not running out of trees and the birds are just fine. What you should worry about is the billions of dollars we will be wasting on cap and trade credits. I'm sure you are a sweet kid but plastic bags are the least of our problems. Why don't you start a "Young Republicans" club at your school?

I started this club for a reason, and i think most people can figure out why. I'm not a sweet little fourth grader any more and I know for certain that I don't want to grow up with more bullies like Scott Walker. FYI there is a plastic bag island in the Pacific that is the size of Texas, and if people can't see why that's bad then they will never open their eyes to anything else.
