Plastic waste rises as 1.5bn 'bags for life' sold, research finds - Sean Botelho - 11-28-2019

The amount of bags sold each year in uncanny and needs to be reduced before we ruin our planet. Even with these 'bags for life' people still are buying way to much, people usually don't use this for the lifetime it was meant for. They are so cheap that most of the population is able to afford them over and over again with every visit ruining our planet with all of the plastic litter. Last year the amount of plastic used by supermarkets increased to 900,000 tonnes. We need to find a better alternative to this plastic we are using, we need to stop using and getting rid of plastic so easily. If this can't be done the only option we will have is to put a ban on plastic which would hurt our quality of life greatly.

Putting an absolute ban on plastic would really tell on almost everything in the human world. It is clear to see that almost all that we make use of has a bit of plastic in them. Trying and actually succeeding in limiting how much of the plastic we use would be a great option in this situation.

But I think the only solution is to find plastic that biodegrade faster
