Million Plastic Bags Gone Martha R Woodward

The purpose of this book is to motivate everyone to rid the earth of plastic bags. Since their beginning in Sweden in 1965, trillions of plastic bags have been produced world-wide. However, less than 3 % are reused or recycled. Plastic bags have become one of the main sources of solid waste pollution in the world. Some countries and states in the USA have forbid their use. It is time we rid the earth of plastic bags. We can no longer sit aside and watch as our land and oceans are overcrowded by plastic bags. Over a million marine animals and another million birds die each year from consuming plastic. Join Martha Rose Woodward in the campaign to rid the earth of plastic bags by Cut-Tie-Toss-or Burn. Cut the bags into tiny pieces, wrap in paper and toss. Tie each bags into knots before tossing in the trash. Or, if your local law s allow, burn in fireplace, wood stove, or burn pit. We can be the generations that rid the earth of plastic bags. Will you commit to ridding the earth of 64 bags? 64 bags equals one pound. It will only take 15,625 people to rid the earth of one pound of bags each to reach the goal of Million Plastic Bags Gone.
