Paper bags were used many years ago. As time passsed and technology increased we began using more plastic bags. The paper bag did not hold up to a lot of wear and tear like the plastic bag does. Imagine carrying your groceries home in a rain storm with paper bags. Everything you purchased would be on the ground. The paper will immediately tear and break from the moisture. Therefore a plastic bag is not only better for the environment because of recyling purposes, but it's a more durable product, that can also be reused more efficiently than the paper bag. There are also environmentally friendly plastic bags. They can be made with a bio-degradable additive which enables the plastic components to degrade faster than a regular bag.

Stay with the plastic bag, don't think that paper is the answer. Also remember paper burns at a much faster rate than plastic, which could cause more fires and mishaps within our communities.

I prefer Plastic..
