After reading yet another preachy post about how "human waste doesn't belong in landfills" I ran across the following link:
How many diapers are required every day to satisfy the world consumption? | The Disposable Diaper Industry Source
The upshot is that around 30 - 40 million disposable diapers per day go into landfills in the US. There may be other reasons to ban the bag, but the "doesn't belong in landfills argument" is just preachy and stupid. Hell, a modern RCRA-regulated landfill, double lined and capped every day, is effectively a giant WAGG bag already.
