Each year we waste billions of plastic bags for shopping and waste disposal. They are made out of oil - a valuable resource - so it’s a huge waste of a precious material. But worst of all: it takes nature almost forever to dissolve plastic bags. Plus many animals get trapped in thrown away bags.
Like the light bulb the plastic bag has to go and replaced by something renewable and more practical. It’s a shame that it takes us so long to get rid of it … can we please start a war on plastic bags? Some people have started campaigns to get rid of it - and some government simply make the consumer pay for it. (Thanks for the link Xtine)
