Organic Market Bag Set

So many people are looking to Go Green using recycled or organic bags known to be eco friendly.  Reading up on some articles, I came across an article where Washington DC starting collecting a fee for every bag a shopper uses.  So if you’re planning a trip to DC you may want to read up on the fee.

Helping to protect our environment is to reuse bags that are made from recycled materials which are earth friendly and functional.  Even organic bags made from cotton are a natural product that is completely biodegradable, so they won’t sit in a landfill.  Ideal for eco-conscious consumers and companies.  Switching from plastic bags to an eco friendly bag not only saves the environment this also saves on oil that can be used for energy and less trees that need to be cut down for paper bags.

Here are a few facts to consider using Eco Friendly Bags vs Paper or Plastic.

•The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 380 billion plastics bags are used and disgarded every year in the U.S.

•Thousands of mammals in our oceans die every year due to the plastic bags they think are food.

•Contamination of soil and water is caused by plastic bags that break down in small toxic particles.
