opinion prompt 4 – You should avoid using plastic bags!

I believe we should stop using plastic bags. The plastic bags are destroying our earth and last years in our garbage dumps. I think it would be better to have reusable bags as a requirement when you walk into Price Chopper or Hannaford. I understand that you could reuse the plastic bag as a garbage bag or to carry your items but how many times would you use and reuse one plastic bag? If it’s filled with garbage I would never reuse that bag! The reusable bags are a great idea and come with great designs! Just think of all the plastic bags we saved from going into the ocean! I always think of the movie Happy Feet because it sends a big message to stop throwing garbage into the oceans because it affects the animals in their natural habitats. I agree with this because we could easy use more reusable bags then plastic bags. From my experiences, the reusable bag can hold just has much as about three plastic bags could! They are also easier to carry instead of the plastic digging into your palm. Price Chopper has tried to push using reusable bags more then plastic because it takes off about 5 cents per bag that you bring in yourself! One reusable bag can help take out so much trash out of the oceans; everyone should at least own one!
