Green Bag photo needed

Post by BarbaraLucas »

I produce educational television shows that air on Ann Arbor Community Television Network. We are doing a show about ways to reduce trash, and I'd like to include mention of the "pay-as-you-throw" Green Bag system that we use when we are on Beaver Island. It would be great to have a photo or two of a green bag in use to illustrate the concept. THANKS for considering this request! Barbara Lucas blgreensource@gmail.com

Ha ha I LOVE it! Saw it last night when googling, before I wrote this message. Unfortunately, can't use video. I thought of grabbing a screen shot from it, but the scenes of trying to stuff deer and toilets into the bag are just too funny! :lol:
The only shot that might work is the truck bed filled with green bags, but the point in the show is that the green bag system encourages people to throw away less, and a whole truck bed full of bags doesn't get that point across! Better to show one household's bag(s), if possible.
