Top Facts About Plastic Bags

Each year, an estimated 500 billion to 1 trillion plastic bags are consumed worldwide. That comes out to over one million per minute. Billions end up as litter each year. According to the EPA, over 380 billion plastic bags, sacks and wraps are consumed in the U.S. each year. According to The Wall Street Journal, the U.S. goes through 100 billion plastic shopping bags annually. Estimated cost to retailers is $4 billion. Hundreds of thousands of sea turtles, whales and other marine mammals die every year from eating discarded plastic bags mistaken for food. In 2001, Ireland consumed 1.2 billion plastic bags, or 316 per person. An extremely successful plastic bag consumption tax, or PlasTax, introduced in 2002 reduced consumption by 90%. Approximately 18,000,000 liters of oil have been saved due to this reduced production. Governments around the world are considering implementing similar measures.

100% Cotton Canvas Grocery/Multipurpose Tote Bag


If you are looking for Ecobags please make sure the items that you are going to buy is the right one. There is one new 100% cotton grocery or multipurpose tote bags available now. Size available is 7.5 inch flat bottom. The price are cheap plus free shipping to your doorstep. I have one of this for myself at home. I normally use it whenever I going to do some shopping to the nearby store. Because it is made 100% from cotton, you can actually fold it and put it in your pocket.

I just bought it last week and I still don't know how long more I can use it. Anyway if this can last for several months I consider it very good already since the price is cheap. May be I just buy several pieces for everyone in my house next time.
