Just one Publics said they can go through thousands of plastic bags in a day. Here is one link that talks about how serious this problem has gotten. It's our new DDT.How microplastics are infiltrating the food you eat . There are now studies beiing done of earthworms ingesting micro-plastics. ScienceDirect
Wait. How did we get to plastic bags. Oh yea it was the same environmentalist that said we were killing all the trees and that was killing the air and the rainforest. Now their solution is the new problem.
Must have something to do with the global cooling, no global warming, no I mean climate change.
Just saying
