The Plastic Bag Movement

      Did you know that over 100,000 marine animals are killed by plastic bags each year. My cousin and I think that has to stop. We want you to reuse, not use, or recycle plastic bags. If you don't care about marine animals, you should also know that plastic bags don't biodegrade, and they will eventually infiltrate every link in the food chain. If that's not enough to get you to stop using plastic bags, I don't know what is, but to give you a sense of how serious this is, you should know that in some parts of the ocean there are 13.2 lbs. of garbage for every 2.2 lbs. of plankton. If you don't believe me, look at www.indyweek.com and search do plastic bags ever decompose, savethesea.org and click on facts, and www.seeturtles.org/ocean-plastic/.
