The California Assembly approved a bill that would ban single-use plastic grocery bags, requiring shoppers to bring their own reusable bags or pay at least 5 cents each for recycled-paper bags at the checkout counter. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has indicated that he will sign the bill if it makes it through the Senate.
