Plastic bags are becoming used daily.  Whether you take them from your local store and reuse them in your indoor garbage can, or carry some items to a friends house.  Do you give kids, friends, family or neighbors anything held tightly in a plastic grocery bag? If you say yes to any of these, please ask yourself what those people will do with the plastic bag. Will they be recycled? If you use a plastic bag in your indoor garbage can, then you throw it away in your outside garbage can, is it still finding its way to the dump or possibly in the ocean, lakes, or streams? Is the bag you are holding/using today the one that a bird will try to eat? Will your bag be the one that is lodged into another animals’ digestive system? Find a reusable shopping bag and use it everywhere you go. You might need to carry items to the park, gym, or the library. Use reusable bags for every occasion and you can even wash most reusable bags in the washing machine.
