This is (for sure) not your first time to read a blog entry
expressing the same thing which I am blogging about now…
But who cares?!
Actually, I care…
With the sudden changes in our climate,
or the so-called global warming,
I feel like we need to do something for Mother Earth…
It may not be something so drastic,
but we can always start on small things…
I know that you know where im leading…
Yes, we can simply start by decreasing our use of plastic bags…
Each one of us is a shopper,
whether a thrifty shopper or a frugal shopper…
We always need to buy something,
be it something we want or something we need…
For years, we’ve been into using plastic bags when we buy,
and we already know the implications to our atmosphere
in terms of disposing these plastic bags…
That’s why I really admire those who thought of using the recyclable bags…
and these recyclable bags are not only made of the usual “kacha” as we may call it…
currently, they have gone very fashionable…

| I like this photo from Ecosax |
even celebrities are spotted using these,
trying to make a change for mother Earth…
I hope everyone will learn to adapt the same thing…
I myself had embraced this idea…
I have been using recyclable bags for months now..
and I am proud of it…
I have the foldable ones inside my regular bags,
so in case I need to buy something, I am always ready…
I appreciate also those establishments who practice the same thing…
I believe in SM Supermarket, every Wednesday,
they have a no plastic bag policy…
 |
| The New SM Eco-bags |
Here in Japan
for every plastic bag you use…
which is a brilliant idea,
not only do they earn a few coins from this,
but they somehow sway their customers to bring their own bags…
If I were a government official,
I would have passed a law like that…
harharhar!
I mean it’s not something
that’s very hard to do for mother Earth right?!
You can just simply buy the cheapest of these recyclable bags,
and you’ll be making a change!
Big things come from small things…
If 10 of us use these recyclable bags,
we are already decreasing the use of the plastic bags,
by how many???
By 10??
By 20??
Or even 50??
Imagine how many bags we take home every time we go the grocery…
Of course, you’ll tell me it wont be wise to buy so many recyclable bags…
but believe me, you wont just have one..
after getting one, you will want to influence
every one around you to do the same thing…
how can you say no to these fashionable ones???

| These are unused ones.. Pasalubong from my boss after his trip in France.. They are bigger than the usual ecobags here... |
Of course, I know they cost a bit much…
that’s why, I have been thinking about making some
and offer them at cheaper price…
equally fashionable but cheaper…
I hope I could convince my Mum about it…
I really, really want to pull this project…
so I am keeping my fingers crossed…
Through this, I hope I could influence more people
to refrain from using plastic bags,
and help the Earth through my little way…
Let’s make a change!

I have to agree. We need to use less disposable plastic bags. But the pics of the bags are so stylish, it would be a shame to put can goods or wet goods from the market in these bags heheh! I hope they make bigger reusable bags than the ones they sell in SM supermarkets or Rustans. Med reps give doctors big bags as a promo. I hope they can make something like that and make it available to everyone. It's really good when you're buying a lot from the market.
yey for you sis! and yey for the environment. every little bit helps :D
i like the bags from daiso, the one with a piano keys and "music" on it. =)
