I thought so also. IMHO, if someone was concerned about the environment,
they'd buy some of the more sturdy (usually cloth or some synthetic) bags
and take those into the store with them. The bags in question, being
similar to the regular bags, just thicker, don't seem like something you
could keep around near as long as the reusable alternatives, and also don't
seem like something that would disintegrate as fast as the regular plastic
bags. Sounds more like a lose-lose.
