38 Fantastic Things You Can Do with Plastic Bags
These ideas for recycling are both creative and helpful, thankyou! However, I’m amazed that people continue to accept and collect so many plastic bags!! We have very few in our house here in Australia because I always keep lots of fabric/string/canvas bags in my car and take them shopping with me each time. I line the bins in my home with newspaper, and as I compost all fruit/vegetable scraps, the kitchen bin doesn’t become too wet to wrap other waste for the garbage collection. I really believe it is essential not just that we do recycle these bags in similar, exciting ways as described, but to 1st REFUSE before we REUSE and then RECYCLE.
