    Every year 17 billion carrier bags are given away free in the UK - that means an average of 300 carrier bags for every man, woman and child. Plastics do not bio-degrade and scientists now estimate that plastic lasts for up to 1000 years. Every carrier bag that has ever been produced is still on the planet, in landfill, hedgerows, or floating in the sea. Plastic bag litter is lethal, killing over 100,000 seabirds, dolphins, seals, whales and turtles every year. The sight of the sea filled with plastic and dying sea animals inspired the author to persuade the town traders from her hometown of Modbury to stop using carrier bags. Modbury is now plastic bag free. 9781906136161 240 110x80 mm This product usually ships within 24 hours. Standard UK delivery cost is

Waste Containers Bags and Bins
Plastic is strong, durable, versatile, lightweight, safe and inexpensive. It is made from a by-product of oil refining which would otherwise be wasted, so nobody is importing oil to make plastic products. However, the problem identified by governments and NGOs around the world is that plastic does last rather too long if it gets into the environment and especially in the oceans. Symphony has found the answer to this problem. Symphony's d2w© additive put into the plastic at the extrusion stage will make the finished product oxo-biodegradable so that it will degrade and disappear in a short timescale, leaving no fragments, no methane and no harmful residues. Degradability is not a disposal option - you can still re-use and recycle - it is low cost insurance against the accumulation of plastic waste in the environment. 200 bags 17.7cm x 22.5cm (7 x 9)
