HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT PLASTIC BAGS?
CHEAP, I USE
THEM OVER AND
OVER AGAIN.
A WASTE AND HARMFUL
TO THE ENVIRONMENT BUT
DIFFICULT NOT TO USE.
MY TOWN DOESN'T ALLOW
VENDORS TO USE THEM.
NO NEED FOR THEM. I WOULD
PREFER THAT THEY DO NOT EXIST.
LOVE/HATE. OCCASIONALLY THEY ARE HANDY
BUT GENERALLY SPEAKING I TEND TO USE
CLOTH OR REUSABLE BAGS RATHER THAN
PLASTIC. PLASTIC NEVER EVER GOES AWAY.
HORRIBLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. BUT
COME HANDY WHEN ON WILDERNESS TRIPS.
I LIKE THEM BUT I KNOW
THEY ARE BAD FOR THE
ENVIRONMENT.
I DON'T THINK THE USE OF
PLASTIC BAGS IS NECESSARY
IN MOST SITUATIONS.
I THINK THEY'RE USELESS
BUT STILL USE THEM.
I RECYCLE THEM, SO I AM
OKAY WITH THE OPTION IF IT IS
NECESSARY FOR PROTECTION
IN TRANSIT, BUT I DO NOT FEEL
THEY ARE ALWAYS NECESSARY.
INDIFFERENT. I'D LOVE A DIFFERENT
SOLUTION (BIODEGRADABLE) BUT I HAVEN'T
BROUGHT MY OWN BAGS VERY OFTEN.
FINE, IF
REUSED.
SHOULD BE
BANNED
EVERYWHERE.
As a chemist, I fully understand
how difficult and nasty it is
to degrade and dispose of
plastic safely, so I support
any biodegradable, greener
alternative to plastic bags.
I MINIMIZE THE USE OF PLASTIC
BAGS IF I CAN BUT THEY MAY BE
ESSENTIAL IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS.
THEY SHOULD BE
A LAST RESORT.
HATE THEM! IT 'S A
WASTE OF RESOURCES.
I BRING MY OWN REUSABLE
BAGS WHEN SHOPPING.
In our survey of 118 outdoor enthusiasts, here are some of the comments they offered.
HATE AND TRY NOT TO USE
THEM. WON'T BUY PRODUCTS
WITH UNNECESSARY PLASTIC
PACKAGING, LIKE SINGLE
SERVE FOOD ITEMS.
THE FEWER THE BET TER.
I'M SURROUNDED BY
WASTEF UL PACKAGING.
They are handy. I prefer paper or
reusable but I never remember
the reusable ones.
