Sorry, missed #2.
Eco friendly recycled bags are becoming extremely popular which is a good omen for our planet. They have a dramatically reduced environmental impact. So far this year over 370 billion disposable paper and plastic bags have been wasted and are piling up in landfills. Many countries across the globe are passing laws to tax or ban plastic bag usage and people are starting to act on the Earth's behalf. Together we can help save this planet with every bag we reuse. Seattle's bill for taxing plastic bags was just voted down, but it is just the beginning and a sign of change. Communities need to continue to strive towards a solution and be proactive about setting an example for others.
