What is your perspective on plastic bags?

Question

I am asked to identify and describe the issue of waste management of plastic bags from different perspectives and thought I would use Yahoo as my source of information to do a survey. Please let me know what you think and I will take some quotes to use in my assignment. Thanks

Answer 1

Useful, economical but harmful to the environment. They should be used with caution around children and around adults who act like children. Recycling is a must if you want to avoid running out of space to park your car or walk on the street.

Answer 2

good- they are reliable and don't break, can be reused and serve their purpose, they also have handles whereas the paper bags don't, and if something spilled in a plastic bag it wouldn't leak out whereas a paper bag would leak out the liquid.

bad- Harmful to the environment if people don't put them/throw them away properly and potentially harmful to dumb kids who put them over their heads.
