Breezy Bags Review & GIVEAWAY!!!

HAPPY EARTH DAY - EVERYDAY IS EARTH DAY :)

This review is going to be short and sweet. Breezy Bags Rock. Plastic bags don't.



One plastic shopping bag take 1000 years to decompose in a land fill. Yes 1000 years.



We are ruining our home and it's time we stop.


The problem with most eco - shoppers, is they're bulky, ugly and hard to tote around. Not a problem with Breezy Bags. These are the most friendly convenient shoppers ever! I love them.


There are 5 shoppers encased in a sleeve. Toss the whole thing in your purse, take out as many as you need at the store, unload, shove back in the sleeve, toss back in your purse. It's a breeze!



I think that eventually, plastic bags will no longer be manufactured. I think we are at the beginning of that. Until then, do your part and only use re-usable shoppers. Do it for our kids.



Again, these are the best looking, most convenient, sturdy eco- bags I've seen. I would recommend buying a set, your Mother will love you for it!

Scary Facts -

In the U.S. we use around 270,000,000 plastic shopping bags in a single day.



One person uses more than 325 plastic shopping bags per year.


A family of four will use more than 1200 per year.


Only 1% of plastic bags get recycled.



Paper bags are no better because they use more energy to produce than plastic.



There are over 100,000 marine deaths per year due to plastic bag ingestion.



It takes 1000 years for a single plastic bag to break down in a land fill.



Plastic bags do not biodegrade, they photodegrade-

This means they are broken down by light and heat, which causes them to leach harmful toxins into the environment.



WIN IT!!!
