Check me out. I'm real cool.
Here's a pretty nifty interactive map that displays all of the places around the world who have or have attempted to have a plastic bag ban. Look for some similar characteristics between all these places. Proximity to water? Economic standards? Common values?
Since marine life is primarily affected by plastic bag pollution, it makes sense that places near the water would want a plastic bag ban. As well, places with more liberal views and a certain standard of living and revenue are more likely to go for it. While working here at Env. Mass., I've started researching potential cities in Massachusetts that could be susceptible to a plastic bag ban. These are the types of factors we are looking for. By getting these places on our side, we hope that we'll be able to persuade the ones that are less likely to support this ban. There's power in numbers, you see. :)
