More and more people around the world are becoming aware of the environmental issues surrounding plastic bags. Considering their somewhat placid appearance, the impact of plastic bags on the environment can be devastating.
Here are some facts about the environmental impact of plastic bags:
- The manufacture of plastic bags add tons of carbon emissions into the air annually
- Between 500 billion and 1 trillion plastic bags are used worldwide each year
- Plastic bags cause over 100,000 sea turtle and other marine animal deaths every year when animals mistaken them for food
- Most plastic bags take over 400 years to biodegrade. Some figures indicate that plastic bags could take over 1000 years to break down. (I guess nobody will live long enough to find out!). This means not one plastic bag has ever naturally biodegraded.
- Approximately 60 - 100 million barrels of oil are required to make the world’s plastic bags each year
