Day 146: Reused Plastic Bag For Garbage In Bathroom

A few weeks back, I used a plastic bag for garbage in the bathroom. After emptying the garbage, I kept the bag and used it again.

In a landfill, plastic bags take up to 1,000 years to degrade. As litter, they breakdown into tiny bits, contaminating our soil and water.

Also, when retailers give away free bags, their costs are passed on to consumers in the form of higher prices.Get this and more facts about the real costs of free plastic bags from ReusableBags.com.


What was your simple green act for the day?
