Creation Care Challenge #1

Avoid using plastic bags by bringing your reusable bags when you go shopping. 

Did you know that plastic shopping bags are often the cause of storm drain blockage?

"Plastic bags block waterways and clog sewers, providing breeding grounds for insects like mosquitoes that in turn proliferate the risk of diseases."

Plastic bags take years to decompose and release toxic substances into the soil as they do so.

Helpful tip: Try to shop without a shopping cart and use your canvas bags to gather your items. This ensures you won't leave your reusable bags in your car.
