Went down a new river yesterday with a friend, great river, lots of rapids, but damn... Most of the river was beautiful, but all over the place, like everywhere you looked, there were plastic shopping bags hanging in the trees from when there was high water during the last flood. Must've seen thousands of them over the couple hours we were on the river.
Made me think, damn, those are just the ones that happened to get stuck in the trees, I wonder how many make down the river to the ocean, must be many times that, and this is just one fairly small river.
I recycle my plastic grocery bags, but I know most people don't. Does anyone actually use cloth bags for grocery shopping? I don't, cause it seems like a pain in the ass, but after seeing this, I really think I should start.
ya I know this vid isn't just about bags...
