START WITH YOURSELF! Make a difference by cutting plastic bags out of your own life. We recommend re-using ones you might already have, and purchasing re-usable bags for shopping. If you feel it'll help, you can TAKE A PLEDGE to eliminate plastic bags from your life.

JOIN THE CONVERSATION We blog weekly over at the one city blog about our initiative. Check out what we're up to, leave comments, and keep the conversation on this issue going.

BECOME A "BACK TO THE SACK" RESEARCHER Help strengthen our legislative efforts by researching what other cities, states and countries have done to rid themselves of plastic bags. E-mail adreanna@theidproject.org

COME TO MONTHLY MEETINGS We meet twice a month on the Lower East Side of New York City to strategize, do actions, and explore what mindful political engagement looks like through the lens of interdependence.
