Katy Perry once asked, “Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?” To feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind can mean that one has no goals or ambitions and is just “floating” around with no purpose. However, you can give all those plastic bags lying around your home a good purpose by reducing, reusing, and recycling them.
It should come as no surprise
that an overabundance of plastic shopping bags in the dumps every year pollute and destroy our environment. After all, plastic bags are not biodegradable and harmful to our atmosphere. One way to go green and practice environmental-friendly measures is to reduce the amount of plastic bags in the first place. When shopping at your local grocery store, be sure to bring your own shopping bags and refuse to carry out your groceries out in plastic bags. This can greatly reduce the amount of plastic bags thrown in the trash which will ultimately help our environment.
Reusing your custom printed shopping bags can allow you to make the most out of what you spent for the shopping bags. After all, you spent money on it so why throw them out? Extra plastic bags around your home can be utilized in so many ways including storage of food and items, wastebasket liners, to pick up doggy poo, and so much more. There are endless possibilities for reusing plastic bags around the home. If you cannot find a use for your custom shopping bags, why not flatten and frame them? That way, you can protect the environment as well as give your room a unique touch.

If you find that you cannot reduce or reuse your shopping bags, you can always recycle them at your nearest recycling center. This will ensure that your plastic bags are not thrown away in the dumpster which will only add to the problem of non-biodegradable items in our landfills every year.
Let’s face it—plastic bags are extremely common around the home, the grocery stores, and malls. Trillions if not millions of these environmental offenders are produced annually. While some people reduce, reuse, and recycle plastic bags, others do not take similar actions. As we are all aware of, plastic bags can easily “drift away” and end up in places where they should not be including the highways, on the curb,
mysteriously showing up in our backyards, etc.
