where everything you buy counts for the earth

Reusable Shopping Bags & Totes

ecoTIP

 Dangle a thick piece of green ribbon on your rear-view mirror, a reminder to bring your reusable bags into the store. Ask your kids to help you remember too!


 

By now you know that plastic bags are catastrophic – wildlife often die swallowing them, thinking they’re food. Did you know the largest landfill in the world is floating in the Pacific, comprised mostly of plastic? Paper grocery bags…hardly better: it takes almost four times the energy to manufacture a paper one vs. a plastic one. Go guilt-free with a reusable shopping bag.

Note to the converted: sick of that five-year old trade show canvas bag? Treat yourself to an upgrade and flaunt your eco support in sustainable style. Repurpose your oldie for a less public need.
