How to Shop Smarter for Eco-Friendly Products
Reusable Bags
Sometimes there is too much of a good thing. Of course reusable bags are preferable to plastic or paper, but they do require
a lot of energy to produce. According to a British government-sponsored life cycle assessment, a cotton bag must be used 171
times before it's environmentally friendlier than paper or plastic. So the next time you forget your reusable bags, don't
guilt yourself into buying more, rather reuse the paper or plastic you take.
