Global Warming Countermeasures from NotAMall

global warmingIf you're looking for global warming countermeasures, try our plain canvas shopping bags, you've come to the right place!

Stop contributing to our ever expanding landfills and slow the global warming process. Start using plain canvas shopping bags. Save our trees and prevent the death of hundreds of thousands of sea turtles, whales and other marine mammals who eat discarded plastic bags mistaking them for food. As global warming worsens, it becomes increasingly important for everyone to take positiive steps. Give this environmentally friendly gift to your family and friends as a holiday or birthday gift.

Encourage everyone you know to start carrying these reusable plain canvas shopping bags and help reverse the global warming trend... a small step can make a HUGE difference.

Our bags are made of 100% natural, unbleached cotton. The fabric weight is a strong 10 ounce canvas duck and can easily hold 40 pounds (19 kilos).

Message on Bag:

Americans consume 100 billion plastic shopping bags every year. Over 500 billion are consumed worldwide and about 4 billion become general litter.

Plastic bags don't "biodegrade", they break down into tiny toxic bits which contaminate soil and water. They can take 1,000 years to break down.

Fourteen million trees were cut in 1999 to produce the ten billion paper grocery bags used by Americans that year.

Each ton of recycled paper can save 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, three cubic yards of landfill space, 4,000 kilowatts of energy and 7,000 gallons of water.

One simple paradox of life in the modern world is that our garbage simply disappears. But of course it really doesn't, it just goes someplace else. Someplace usually out of sight and thus, out of mind. But it is piling up someplace and the pile is getting very very large! If there really was a single pile of the world's garbage from simply the past year, it would be nothing less than horrifying. But there isn't one pile, there are many thousands of piles. Somehow that makes us less concerned. But do we really want these piles of garbage to continue to grow in-perpetuity and become our legacy to future generations?

But what can I do?

When they ask you "paper or plastic" at the supermarket, say "neither" and hand them your own reusable canvas bags!

Our NotAWaste canvas bags are printed with a few of the many compelling facts that emphasize the importance of reducing needless waste and pollution, particularly the ubiquitous shopping bag.
