Plastic grocery bags are everywhere and their numbers are staggering. No matter how careful we are they end up as unsightly litter on our roadways, beaches and in our oceans. These littered plastic bags are an eyesore and send a poor message to visitors about The Bahamas. However, these bags not only mar the beauty of our surroundings but pose a real threat to wildlife. One study estimated that 100,000 marine animals are killed annually by plastic bags.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
The simple act of taking a reusable green bag to the grocery store will help keep The Bahamas clean and save marine animals from a terrible death. Stop by the Bahamas National Trust office on Village road and give the gift that lasts a lifetime - a reusable shopping bag. They make great gift bags and stocking stuffers and the best part is long after Christmas your gift will still be used.
