[greenyes] Wal-M.A.R.T.'s shopping bag recycling collection

[Stephan Pollard <sp@no.address>]

All,

Can anyone offer/direct me to substantive evidence that the corporation 
is indeed directing their collections of shopping bags to 
recyclers/manufacturers who are turning the material into useable 
products and that the plastic isn't being used in Waste to Energy (WTE) 
applications or landfilled?

Relatedly, as many of you well know, not all plastic film is made of the 
same type of plastic and that chemistry matters!  Wal-M.A.R.T.'s 
collection boxes are full of customer returned #2 (HDPE) bags (theirs 
and other store's), #4 (LDPE) bags, other plastic, and residuals.  Does 
anyone know what exactly happens to the individual material categories 
in this co-mingled collection?

Happy Holidays
Stephan
