Paper or plastic? What a silly question.
This video parody takes a look at the many negative environmental and health effects caused by single-use plastic bags and dispels the myth that recycling them is guilt-free. What can we do? Bring our own reusable bags when shopping and ban single-use plastic bags at grocery stores in our communities.
This video was made by volunteers on behalf of Green Sangha.
