Your single anecdote that reusable bags only last a dozen uses is total bullshit, and their use actual decreases the demand and usage of single use plastic bags. Are you too cheap to buy a good one?

Also, there are many reusable shopping bag options that aren't made of plastic.

None of which are Better for the environment. Paper bags have been found to be worse for the environment.

Face it, the thinnest possible plastic bags that can be re-used are the best option at this time.

Says who? Please site your evidence that durable re-usable bags are not better for the environment.

So a reusable canvas bag is worse than the environment than single use plastic bags? Right.

So are you one of those people who just can't be bothered to own a reusable bag? The convenience of that sweet single use plastic is just so vital for you?
