Quick when I say, “Valentine’s Day” you say… “Reusable Bags!” Ok, maybe it’s not the first gift that popped into your head but trust me, a nice reusable bag is a totally lovable way to say you care this Valentine’s Day. At the very least Mother Nature will thank you.

Consider this…

  • According to Reusable Bags, well over 500,000,000,000 (that’s 500 billion) plastic bags annually, or almost 1 million per minute are snatched up and used by consumers everywhere.
  • Guess how many of those plastic bags will biodegrade? ALL OF THEM! That’s right, all plastic bags will eventually leave this planet. However, they take oh… about 1,000 years to do so. Nice!
  • In the U.S. alone we use up 12 million barrels of oil annually simply to make plastic bags. Oil. That’s a non-renewable resource people. We will run out one day and it’s so damn lame that it’ll be partly due plastic bags.
  • Plastic bags kill 100,000 sea turtle and other marine animals each year because animals mistake them for food.

Above is just the tiny tip of a much larger problem. Plastic bags cause pollution, create extensive litter, and fill up our landfills. If you regularly use just one reusable bag until it’s no longer usable you can eliminate the use of over 1,000 plastic bags. Learn more about why plastic bags suck at Reusable Bags and then pick up a sweet heartfelt reusable bag for your favorite person this Valentine’s Day.
