I was watching the news last night and I couldn’t believe what the big story topic was. They were discussing whether using plastic bags could actually be better than using the reusable ones. There are several arguments against what we thought were “green” bags. Some claim that after a while they release harmful chemicals into the unpackaged food we put in them. I couldn’t find any studies or real proof to support this theory, but I have a solution anyway – put your fresh fruit and produce in a produce bag before putting them in!
A second argument is that so many companies are giving these recycle-able bags away that people are starting to have too many and throw them away. Here’s a wise and novel idea – if you have enough, don’t take any more! Just because it’s free doesn’t mean you have to take it.
