The plastic bags that they give us in the supermarkets are a problem for the environment because they take a long time to biodegrade and the recycling process is complex. For this reason, and thanks to the importance of awareness raising against pollution around the world, more and more people are using other alternatives when it comes to shopping.
Tips to go shopping without using plastic bags
In Toldos Guardamar we bet for the respect for the environment in all the senses and for that reason we want to help you that you can also avoid the plastic bags when you make the purchase in the supermarket.
An alternative is to carry the typical cart in which we can store everything when we make the purchase, regardless of whether we do it in the supermarket or in any of the stores in our neighborhood. Not a single plastic bag will be spent and everything will be transported safely and in the best conditions.
Using a bag made with recycled products is a great option. We can take what we want while we know that the bag is made with recycled products. The same happens with bags that are made with vegetable fibers, very durable and completely recyclable.
If the vintage trend appeals you, surely you will find wicker baskets a formidable alternative, at least if you are one of those people who do not usually make purchases too big or buy only what they will consume in the day.
In the market, we can also find burlap bags, although it is best to buy and do it ourselves. It is not very difficult and we will have the security that we will have a unique product and completely respectful with the environment and that we will not spend a single plastic bag on our purchases.
