Good Plastics When I was young I was taught in school that plastics were harmful to the environment but this one has caught my attention. It is a plastic bag for shoppers in SM,Philippines that is marked "BIODEGRADABLE". I don't know how they make their plastics but if it truly decomposes then I encourage other shopping malls and stores to do the same and do their share in saving Mother Earth too. Now There's no more excuse for fans of the more durable plastic. Uploaded by karagala (153) • 12 hours ago Tags: environment, earth, biodegradable, plastic karagala (153)
