With St. Patrick's Day right around the corner,
people are thinking about going green.
One easy way to go green is to use reusable bags
rather than disposable plastic bags.
Plastic bags take up to 1,000 years to decompose on land and 450 years to decompose in water. This means that current and future plastic bags will stay in
circulation for a long time: in our
landfills, oceans, streets, and neighborhoods.
