			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Plastic bags with carrying handles are used in large numbers worldwide - stores often provide them as a convenience to shoppers.</p>
<p>However, we all know we should be making a more conscious effort to be more proactive - one of the ways we can contribute to the environment is by saying &#8220;NO&#8221; to the use of plastic shopping bags.</p>
<p>But firstly, here are some of the<strong> reasons why you should say &#8220;NO&#8221; to Plastic Bags</strong> and choose Non-Woven Tote Bags as an environmentally-friendly alternative to plastic shopping bags:</p>
<ol>
<li> Plastic bags are made from ethylene, a by-product of natural gas or from naphtha, a by-product of petroleum. Reserves of gas and oil are limited and using them to make bags means that less oil and gas will be available for other uses.</li>
<li> When disposed of improperly, plastic bags are unsightly and represent a hazard to wildlife and exposes fisheries to eminent danger. Aquatic life can be threatened through entanglement, suffocation, and ingestion.</li>
<li> Plastic bags, conventional or &#8220;biodegradable&#8221;, do not readily biodegrade in a sanitary landfill</li>
</ol>
<p>ToteBag Factory offers a great range of eco-friendly tote bags that have less impact on the earth. <em></em></p>
<p><em>Why not do your bit for the environment whilst promoting your brand and company at the same time?<br />
</em></p>
<p>Being environmentally friendly, doesn&#8217;t mean that you have to compromise on quality or looks when it comes to corporate gifts or promotional items.</p>
<p>Check out our <a title="totebag factory gallery" href="http://www.totebagfactory.com/tote-bag-styles">gallery of tote bag designs</a> - they look great and come in a range of styles, colours and sizes.</p>
