It seems that many people are getting into the habit of making their own disposable shopping bags rather than purchasing a more expensive, more often used and more environmentally friendly, DIY reusable grocery bags. While the return on these may be great, they are not what is best for the environment. In this article, I'll discuss the environmental benefits of using a reusable grocery bag, and why they are one of the best ways to help to reduce waste and carbon emissions in our society.
A lot of recycling companies do place some restrictions on the amount of used bags they will accept for recycling. This means that a large amount of the paper that these companies will be collecting for their business will be being sent to a landfill, instead of being recycled. While these restrictions are there to prevent trash from being placed in landfills, it also keeps an untaxed stock of materials that can be used for the manufacturing of new paper products.
What if the paper products that you are buying are going into the same trash bin that is used for dumpsters and store checkout lanes? The environment is still being short changed. But with a disposable shopping bag, all of the paper is not only taken out of the landfill, but also can be recycled, meaning that a percentage of that waste can be reused, helping to reduce the pressure put on the environment.
Using a shopping bag is also much more beneficial to the environment than using plastic, which is taken from the oceans and then destroyed through heating, or incinerated to make greenhouse gases. The paper products that come from a disposable bag, are going back into the soil in the form of seeds. That, in turn, helps to nourish a valuable resource.
Plastic bags can also contain chemical toxins that are harmful to your health. In fact, the chemicals used to produce plastic have been banned from use in many countries as they are considered a threat to the environment. With the use of a reusable grocery bag, all of the harmful chemicals will not be in the bag.
The use of reusable grocery bags is also beneficial to your wallet. Not only are they inexpensive to make, they are also a great deal. The reusable grocery bags that are sold at stores can be purchased for less than fifty cents, with a decent sized bag lasting from six months to a year before it needs to be replaced.
In addition to being more environmentally friendly, the usage of disposable reusable grocery bags is more convenient for people. In today's world, many people do not have time to make their own paper products, and many people like to be able to save money while doing something that is fun and enjoyable. Plus, with the economy the way it is, consumers can use the savings to get discounts or buy bigger bags.
One thing that you should take into consideration when it comes to choosing between disposables and reusable grocery bags is the fact that disposables come in a number of different sizes. If you only buy a few paper products, then the single size grocery bags are perfectly fine for you. However, if you tend to buy more than a few paper products every time, then the reusable grocery bags will be more useful to you.
