So you’ve got a brown, gray and green recycling bin to help you separate general refuse from plastics, tins and glass. Sadly most people still use supermarket carrier bags to neatly wrap up their general waste meaning it adds a couple thousand years to the degrading process.

Supermarkets are trying to deter us from using carrier bags as bin liners by removing them from sight, or in some cases, charging for them in an attempt to get people to re-use those they already have. But with so many still lining their kitchen bins with them, its a slow process.

Now you can get Eco Friendly Bio-Degradable Pedal Bin Liners!

These pedal bin liners fit most pedal bins and degrade completely, changing the way we use plastics today. There are even special eco friendly brabantia bin bags meaning the impact on the legacy we leave is almost immediate, degrading totally and harmlessly, changing the way we use plastics and having an immediate impact on the landfill problem.

This eco-friendly bag is a bit different to what you will find in the high street stores. Colourful and fun it is, environmentally damaging its not!

All these bags are eco-friendly having been made from recycled juice packs by a women’s cooperative in the Phillipines. The juice pack bags are a complete range of bags, purses and accessories made from recycled juice packs, the non-biodegradable foil and plastic packaging that would otherwise go into landfill sites and incinerators. They come in a range of styles and colours, and make a great eco friendly gift.

The big question is… are you willing to be seen out and about with a recycled handbag, or will you wait until a celebrity is seen with one clutched to their arm!
