Laudable, but I’m betting few people do that/few stores offer the opportunity.
The article states many end up in landfills. Makes sense to me - I often “recycle” the bags by using them for trash.
What sucks is when people just dump them “where ever”.
“The article states many end up in landfills.”
As do regular trash bags.
Exactly. I forgot to include that thought that earlier. A good percentage of all plastic bags are likely trash bags that end up by design in a landfill or other waste processing installation.
And trash bags are a lot thicker, and will take a lot longer to break down, unless they’re designed to do so???????
And give up my free trash bags?
