Why are Ecoplas Bags better than paper?
Paper bags are tough on the environment to manufacture. It takes a lot of chemicals, energy, and especially trees. Trees are a great natural consumer of Carbon Dioxide, and “clean” our air. We should have better uses for trees than to make bags! Paper bags weigh about 10 times more than an Ecoplas bag and take up about 10 times more room in a truck…so they use much more energy to transport…as much as 10 times more energy for the same number of bags.
