Did you know that every year, the United States uses 100 million plastic shopping bags? That means 12 million barrels of crude oil had to be used just to create all of those plastic bags. Those numbers alone do not make a pretty picture. Just think about all of those plastic bags and that when these have completely been used up, it will all just go to landfills and do not decompose for a hundred years.

If we do not act now then we will just be continuing to pollute our land and water with all of these plastics. There is always a solution. While we are waiting for scientists to create a kind of plastic that will decompose quickly and be safer for the environment, we should start using eco friendly shopping bags. We should make it a habit to bring such bags whenever we go to the supermarket and shopping centers so we can contribute in minimizing the plastic wastes.

There are so many benefits of using these eco friendly shopping bags, and the following is just a short list of it.

1. Since crude oil is used to create all those plastic shopping bags, when we use our own fabric based bags, there will be less demand for plastic bags. This means less plastics will be used and since plastics are made from crude oil, less of that greasy and polluting stuff will be needed.

2. You can use eco friendly shopping bags again and again. These are more durable than plastic bags and will certainly last for even hundreds more of uses. This is because most of these bags are made of canvas which is a strong, non woven fabric than can hold a typical list of grocery items.

3. If you want to be fashionable when you go out shopping, now you can with these reusable shopping bags. They come in different sizes, colors, styles, and designs. You can even personalize your own by using some fabric paint, beads and colorful threads.

4. You can help promote being friendly with the environment by creating your own personalized shopping bags and giving them as a gift to your friends and co-workers. In your own small way, you will be helping to spread the word about the importance of taking plastics off the supermarkets and replacing them with reusable bags. Plus, you will be educating people that it is very easy and fun to use eco bags instead.

5. Look for a supermarket that gives credit or discounts to people who shop using their own shopping bags. It is a growing trend among supermarkets to shift to reusable bags instead of the typical plastic kind. Help support this initiative by using your own bag instead, and in turn get something of a bonus from your shopping.

There is no better time to be more concerned for our environment than today. We have the power to make a change, to make our own contributions to keeping our world a better, safer and cleaner place to live in.

There is only one earth. Do your part, save the earth. Start using eco friendly bags. http://www.bagtailor.com/
