Which bag works better paper bag or plastic bag?
Depends, are you trying to decide what you want when you check out at the grocery store or what? If you want something to hold wet stuff like diapers or kitty litter, plastic …works better every time. If you want to make book covers for your high-school texts, paper is definitely easuer to fold and tape. If you just want to know which you want when you check out, think like this: do you want a few free plastic bags for the small trash bins? Go with plastic. Do you want paper bags for Halloween candy, paper for kids to scribble on? Go with paper bags. Do you want to be enviromentally concious and do right by the environment? Try bringing your own fabric bags and asking the check-out person to use them instead of plastic or paper. They should be ok with it, if you explain you're part of a movement to reduce waste in landfills and deforestation. The upside to fabric bags: they don't rip like plastic and paper. (MORE)
