Pour les sacs en papier ‘USA’, c’était vrai jusqu’au milieu des années 1980 lorsque la mode des sacs plastiques s’est emballer..! 1976 Mobil Oil introduces the plastic bag to the United States. To recognize the U.S. Bicentennial, the bag’s designs are in red, white, and blue. 1982 Safeway and Kroger, two of the biggest U.S. grocery chains, start to switch from paper to plastic bags. 1986 Plastic bags already account for over 80 percent of the market in much of Europe, with paper holding on to the remainder. In the United States, the percentages are reversed. June 1986 The half-million-member-strong General Federation of Women’s Clubs starts a U.S.-wide letter writing campaign to grocers raising concerns about the negative environmental effects of plastic bags. Late 1980s Plastic bag usage estimated to catch up to paper in U.S. groceries.
