As one means for tackling the problem of global warming, we must make our lifestyles more en-vironmentally friendly; that is, create more‘eco-oriented lifestyles.’Reducing the use of plastic bags is one way to take a significant step toward mitigating the effects of global warming.<BR>At the G8 Environment Ministers Meeting held in Kobe in May, an Action Plan was agreed upon regarding efforts to further reduce the use of disposable plastic bag on a global scale. Public awareness on this topic has increased both domestically and internationally. Before the announcement of this decision, Toyama Prefecture had already initiated a campaign on April 1, 2008, to stop providing free plastic bags at supermarkets and laundry facilities throughout the prefecture. This is an example of the very first experiment conducted by a municipality in Japan to address this issue. As a result, the proportion of shoppers who brought their own shopping bags rose to 93% in the month of April alone. This positive response indicates a deep understanding of the problem, and shows that citizens are willing to support efforts to implement change.<BR>In order to turn bringing a shopping bag into a daily habit in the lives of its citizens, rather than it being just a temporal fad, Toyama Prefecture has developed the Act to Abolish Disposable Plastic Bags, in cooperation with the Council to Promote Reduction of Plastic Bags.
