A common estimate is that global consumption of plastic bags is over 500 billion plastic bags annually. Yes that's 500,000,000,000 plastic bags used per year. In other words, that's almost 1 million plastic bags used per minute.As if that's not enough, some environmental groups have estimated that up to 1 trillion plastic bags are used worldwide each year. Now, depending on your definition of the word "trillion", that would be 1,000,000,000,000 plastic bags!
