My name is Jessie Franklin, the founder of Eco-Fundraiser.com - a zero waste school ​ ​ fundraiser - and author of Clean Green Home. Three years ago, I decided to eliminate ​ ​ unnecessary toxins from my home because I began to realize that many ingredients used in household and beauty products, even the so called “green” ones, are chemicals that can be harmful to our health. My research led me to see how the ingredients in every product we use, and it’s packaging - especially single-use and disposable plastic - also impacts the health of our environment. I always thought that plastics would forever have use if properly recycled, but as I learned more, I discovered that recycling them is not the eco-friendly solution that I had believed it to be.

  • Plastic Bag Ban Frequently Asked Questions

    Plastic Bag Ban Frequently Asked Questions

    PLASTIC BAG BAN FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS BACKGROUND On April 22, 2014, the city council unanimously voted to ban the use of single use plastic bags in Beverly Hills. WHY ARE PLASTIC BAGS BEING BANNED? Plastic bags have detrimental effects to our environment. A single plastic bag can take up to 1,000 years to degrade. Plastic bags are the second-most common type of ocean refuse, after cigarette butts. Plastic bags remain toxic even after they break down. Every square mile of ocean has about 46,000 pieces of plastic floating in it. Plastic bags are difficult to recycle. Less than 5% of the 19 billion (19,000,000,000) plastic bags used annually in California are actually recycled. WHEN DOES THE ORDINANCE GO INTO EFFECT? The plastic bag ban will be carried out in two phases. The First phase of the ordinance went into effect on July 1, 2014. Phase two, which bans plastic bags at small grocery stores, convenience stores, pharmacies, and food markets, will be put into practice on January 1, 2015. WHICH STORES ARE AFFECTED? Only stores selling breads, sodas, snacks, or other convenient items are affected. Phase 1 stores include: Ride Aid (Canon Dr.) Ride Aid (Bedford Dr.) CVS (Wilshire Blvd) Pavilions Whole Foods WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE REUSABLE BAGS? Since the ordinance’s adoption, the city has distributed reusable bags to residents at community events. As part of the ordinance, stores are required to carry inventory of reusable bags, which may be purchased by customers if needed. Stores are also required to sell paper bags for .10 cents each, so remember to bring your reusable bags when you shop! ARE PAPER BAGS STILL HARMFUL TO THE ENVIRONMENT? Yes, paper bags still have damaging effects to the environment.

Objectives: EACH PERSON CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE BY RECYCLING! Discussion about how each student already recycles: • At home: bottles and cans returned for deposit; donation to Goodwill of clothing • At school: receptacles for different recycling items, fundraising opportunities collecting newspapers, bottle tops, soup labels, etc. Required Materials : • LARGE BROWN PAPER BAG Alternate SHOW AND TELL: present other items produced by recycling (example: TerraCycle products; do students have any of them? Suggest teacher has some on hand before lesson) to aid in discussion about recycling). - Distribute BROWN PAPER BAG to each student - Discuss uses, how they may be reused after groceries are unloaded. Directions for Recycling a Brown Paper Bag: 1. Unfold the bottom of the grocery bag by carefully tearing it open. Cut off the bottom of the bag at the last fold. (For younger students, this part can be done ahead of time by the teacher). 2. If advertisement is on the bag: Flatten the bag and carefully cut along one side to fully open the bag. Turn bag inside out, so any advertisement will be hidden and tape cut seam together again. If there is no advertisement, proceed to Step 3. 3. Smooth the bag along all the seams to make the bag as flat as possible.
