On a worldwide base (per year) it costs $2,517,400,000,000.00! But that's just half of it - what I mean is that $2,517,400,000,000.00 is only how much it costs to mix the crude oil and petroleum together. To have the exact amount you need to find out how much lubricants and asphalt is produced for the making of plastic bags (on a yearly basis) and then multiply it by 30,700,000,000 - which is the number of barrels of crude oil is made each year. And crude oil because that is the main ingredients when producing plastic bags!
