We've got Tesco, Somerfield and Morrisons bags for life in the car and use them almost every week, except when the doggy poo bag supply is running low, then we do a 'shop' where the throw away bags are still free and top up our supply for the dog walking times. What disgusts me is the people who pick up their dog's droppings because someone is looking, then chuck the bag in the hedgerow or behind the trees in the park as soon as they think it 'is clear'. The bag has a greenhouse effect and it doesn't need thinking about what happens inside of it, and the danger to wildlife.
Most plastic bags will disintegrate within a couple of years at the most and the 'lies' from our 'green government' about 100 years is a load of tosh. Have you stored anything in carrier bags and put them on top of the wardrobe a couple of years ago. If so, have a look at the bag now, there will not be much of it left.
If the 100 years thing was true, why do councils still issue bin bags to residential areas that cannot use wheelie bins?
