Plastic Bags

Long time ago people use baskets and net bags when they buy in the market or when they buy grocery in grocery store, but when time go by many people use plastic bags because it is disposable and easy to use, that’s why when you buy vegetable and meat in the market you also bring lots of plastic bags with you.

Plastic bag is so cheap to buy and every time you buy they gave it for free and some people don’t recycle it they just throw it anywhere that most of the time a reason why there is flooding.
Plastic bag don’t melt and it cannot use as fertilizer but can be recycle. More and more people became lazy and careless in making proper disposal of their garbage. They don’t know that plastic factory blows harmful materials in the atmosphere and make air pollute. The more we use plastic bag and don’t recycle them the more we put our country in danger.

In the Philippines 60 t0 70 percent of our garbage is plastic and most of them are plastic bag that we get in the grocery and in wet market, some organization helps educates some people to recycle. Some people use plastic bags to make some crafty stylish curtain or a decoration.
In Europe they already practice recycle long time ago. They know that when population arise and garbage will be a big problem to control. So when you buy things or grocery in the market you also will pay extra for plastic a bag that’s why you should bring basket or bag with you. When you don’t segregate your garbage you also pay fines so European force to disposed their own garbage properly.

Imagine when you go to the market everyday when you don’t bring you own bag, how many bags will you get after a week?
I always have problem with that as I always buy grocery everyday to get fresh vegetable and meat, when I get home I also bring to much plastic bags but I learn to solve my problems. I bring my grocery bag or sometimes I only use one plastic bag and tell the cashier not to give me extra plastic bag. It’s nice to be that way in that case you help the earth and also help others and became a good example for people who don’t. Care about preserving our planet and make it cleaner

Paper bag is also nice. It disposable and it will decay and can be use as fertilizer and it can be decomposed. Paper bags is mostly make of recycled materials but sometimes it’s complicated to use and somewhat expensive. When paper gets wet and get dirty and smelly it will be good not to use it. Paper bag is somewhat better than plastic bags. But in our country it’s not best solutions like me who always buy because we have much rains here.
The better solution which I think the answer of our problem in terms of too many plastic bags in our stockroom is the canvas bag or a cloth bags.

Yes its bit expensive but we can always used them and wash when it gets dirty and smelly. I already try to use the bag it’s durable and handy and make your shopping time less effort.
Here in the Philippines market bag like this is not so popular but when we practice using bags like this we help decreases garbage and prevent floods. Plastic usually the reason of clogging in our canals,

You can buy cloth bags in the mall or even in the market, its bit costly but yet helpful to save your money, instead always buy plastic grocery bag for 5 peso a piece market bag usually cost you 3o to 40 peso and long lasting.
This is a simple way of helping our country to a harmful effect of pollution and to make a better clean place for us like other country. When our place is clean the more investor wants to invest, the more job will be open for us.
