Paper or plastic...and why? Plastic because it's thin and light and it scrunches up into a tiny plastic thing after.
if you really want to be eco friendly neither and bring your own bag. but if you had to choose. Plastic. You can reuse and maybe recycle.
If you got the paper, you won't need the plastic.....unless you forgot to go to the bank.
well....paper rips..but sometimes plastic does to...I always have the plastic on the outside of the paper bag so i can use the plastic handles and have the paper since it's strong:) Less ripping!
Neither Paper nor plastic are smart environmental choices...I guess atleast the plastic can be recycled into more plastic things...paper may be better at breaking down but it also takes millions of trees to supply all these paper bags what a waste....re-usable bags are what it's all about now...
plastic, 'cause it scrunches up and I can use it to throw trash in later
