Question

Why should the use of polybags be discouraged?

Answer 1

They are plastic, which does not break down naturally.  They are mostly made in China where pollution controls are poor.

Paper bags are made of carbon sequestered from the atmosphere.  If you truly believe CO2 is bad, then support the lumber companies cutting trees to make paper products. That is what locks away carbon into a solid form.  Then new trees are planted to absorb more carbon.

Paper, not plastic.
