In Italy all supermarkets and grocery shops now use biodegradable bioplastic bags. They are not very strong so you need to use more of them, so you don't fill each one too much. You can then use them to collect compostable waste.

I have no clue how much energy producing them requires, but if they work as advertised they seem to solve the after-use-pollution problem.
