Cuyahoga County is committed to eliminating single-use plastic checkout bags.
Why is eliminating our use of single-use plastic important?
- Our natural resources, like Lake Erie, the Cuyahoga River, and our 3 major watersheds, are essential to our community health and economic vitality.
- Our access to clean drinking water is vital. Microplastics negatively affect our drinking water quality.
- As Climate Change continues to affect the world, our economic growth is at risk from wasted natural resources and declining environmental health.
