World Paper Bag Day (or Paper Bag Day) is celebrated across the globe on July 12 every year to reaffirm the much-needed daily use of paper bags over plastic bags, which apparently came in handy for carrying our groceries and stuff for donkey’s years, to the gross detriment of our environment.
This day of July 12 is dedicated to raising awareness about the use of biodegradable paper bags that are recyclable and made of renewable raw materials. Worldwide, there’s has been awakening of sorts – at the turn of the last century – in terms of the need to curb the usage of plastic bags, which are non-biodegradable or, in simplest terms, take hundreds of years to decompose in landfills.
B +Ve!!
