PLA is a pretty neat plastic as it can be produced with renewable resources and can be compostable. I hope that material get's used more! -

Had take-out for lunch and received a plastic bag, and on the walk back realized that I should be using a reusable bag. Will keep a reusable bag at my desk from here on out.
