Holiday Green Tip: Reusable Shopping Bags


This season, why not give two gifts in one?

As you (should) already know, plastic and paper bags are very harmful to the environment, but luckily, some of the damage can be offset by bringing your reusable shopping bag with you whenever you head out to buy produce or gifts this season. Now that reusable shopping bags come in so many fun and different designs, why not try something a little different this year and wrap your gifts to friends and family in something that will last all year?

ChicoBag offers a bag that is made out of 99% recycled content, with 73% of the total weight from post consumer recycled materials that could tie nicely over presents, and online retailer delight.com offers great RuMe Reusable Holiday Gift Wrap bags that are as festive as they are useful.

For more great ideas and tips on how to wrap your gift with a reusable bag, check out the video below from reusablebags.com.
