The reuseable bag will be more green. Even though it can carry bacteria. It you wash it every time you use it you can reuse it every time. And plastic bag you can use it again but it ends up everywhere like waterways. Paper bag you can use it about twice but it can end up tearing. Also reuseable bag takes up less resources. This is the reason I choose reuseable bag instead of plastic and paper bag.
If I were going to the store, I would use reusable bags. Reusable bags are healthier for the enviorment because they can be reused, instead of thrown away like paper or plastic bags. Scientist say that is you don't wash your reusable bags, they can harbor bacterial, but that doesn't add up to the amount of chemicals used in plastic bags, and paper bags use up lots of natural resources. -Haley Young P1
I like plastic bags. It's not as harmful to the environment as paper bags r. Paper bags are good for the environment. And reusable bags can have viruses. I think plastic is the best one.
Do you ever ask yourself... Paper,plastic or reusable? The obvious one is reusable but not all people agree. One scientist said that plastic has a lesser impact than paper. Others think that paper is environmentally clean. And with the last one they say reusable bags help recycling but it is weak. So after you read this... What's your choice???

I choose paper. It's recyclable plus you can use it for more then one thing. So we could stop using so much plastic! Then us the people could stop using so much plastic. My final decision is paper.
I would pick paper because paper doesn't care bacteria. They also are reusable. Plastic are enviormentaly harmful and can harm wild life. Reusable can hold bacteria so that's my choice.
I think the most green bags are reusable. They are good for the environment because they can be used over and over again. They also don't use up as many natural resources. They keep the trash from piling up at a fast rate. It is argued that they harbor lots of harmful bacteria, but as long as the consumers wash their bags before using them again, they won't make you sick. In conclusion, I believe that using reusable bags is the most green because they are ecological and better for the environment.
I would use reusable bags because they are better for the environment. Plastic and paper bags have to be thrown away but reusable bags just have to be washed.
If I went to a store. I would choose reusable bags because there better for the environment. And there not a one time use like paper, and plastic. A down side about reusable bags is that they can grow bacteria on them, so after every use u have to wash your reusable bags. Also reusable bags may take more materials then paper and plastic but you can use them for more then one time and there a lot safer for the environment.
On my attempt to make the earth greener. On my trip to the grocery store I had a choice paper,plastic, or reusable. I did my research and I found out that as long as I clean my reusable bags after I use them that they would be the most Eco friendly bag. I need to clean them because they can harbor bacteria
I would use plastic bags over reusable and paper bags. Reusable bags help stop pollution. But they harbor bacteria and make people sick. Paper bags are recyclable and clean. But they use more resources take them than plastic bags. So I think that plastic bags are better than the rest.

If I was going to the grocery store I would use reusable bags. Yes, they do carry disease but if you wash them it gets rid of 99.99% of the bacteria. I wouldn't pick paper because it it takes lots of trees. I wouldn't pick plastic because they pollute waters everywhere. So I would use reusable bags because they don't pollute water and don't take trees. Plus they can be washed so they can be used again. -Rachel Reidburn p2
If I go to a grocery store, I would use a reusable bag. Plastic bags use up many resources for just one. It takes 1000 years for it to biodegrade. Recycling plastic bags takes 85 times more energy then creating it. And when they are not recycled they end up in oceans and animal may eat them and might die. Paper bags also require a lot of resources. Reusable bags can cut down how much plastic,paper, and other resources we use. They can be washed to be used again. Reusable bags can be stylish and helpful to the environment.
I would use a reusable bag because I would be able to use it again and again. Plastic bags can be swept away to the ocean or sea. Paper bags are a waste of paper because you can use paper for other things. Like paper for school and we need trees for clean oxygen. Even though reusable bags can catch bacteria u can wash it so it can be used again and again. Reusable bags are the best.
Reusable bags are more relevant to use because they hold more.They have More space in them so you store more products in them. It may need to be washed but you'll use less plastic. It's more efficient to use on of these bags because they hold more, and saves plastic and paper.
People should use reusable bags, for the amount of plastic we use will be reduced.
I think that plastic bags are the best choice cause paper bags are harmful to the environment and Reusable bags can carry viruses I would choose plastic bags what's Your choice.?
If you had to pick one bag out of paper, plastic or reusable I would pick plastic. I would because it uses less natural resources than paper bags do. If reusable bags are not washed then it can hold bacteria on it and then when you use the bag the bacteria spreads. Paper bags pollute the air more than plastic ones do. Even though plastic bags take 100+ to disintegrate they are still better for the environment. Plastic bags have the capability to Carry things all over.
I say reusable because they only make you sick if you don't wash them. The fish eat the plastic. The paper use a lot of resources. Reusable is obviously the better choice. The are better if you wash them regularly.
I think reuseable bags are the best choice. They don't have to be through away after two times using them. All you have to do is wash it every time use it. Unlike plastic and paper you can use it as long as you want. And they don't pollute the ocean.
I would use plastic bags over paper and reusable bags. Reusable bags help stop pollution. But they harbor bacteria and make people sick. Paper bags are recyclable and clean. But they use way more resources than plastic bags. So I would use plastic bags because they are better for the environment.

If I were to choose between plastic, paper, or reusable I'd pick reusable. I'd pick reusable because they have less of an impact on the environment. Plastic bags aren't even used for more than 20 minutes then they are thrown away. Reusable bags are good and can be used multiple times, and can be washed. Paper bags don't last long either and end up in sewage dumps and river banks. Reusable bags are a better choice.
I always use plastic bags. I might start using reusable bags. I think reusable bags really help the environment. It doesn't take that much to wash your reusable bags. I think I can help the environment that way. Let's stop harming the world with plastic bags.
Plastic bags are harmful to the environment. I am going to use reusable bags from now on. There is a chance that reusable bags can carry bacteria, but only if you don't wash it. Plastic bags are thrown away within 20 minutes after use, so why take them if you can use something better for the environment? Reusable bags are the way to go if we want to improve our environment.
Reuse able bags are better than plastic and paper. Reusable bags are good for the environment . If you wash them they are free of harmful germs.
I would pick plastic bags over other bags. I would pick plastic bags because you can recycle them at the store. Also they are better for the environment unlike paper bags. Also plastic bags don't carry harmful bacteria like reusable bags do. Also plastic bag only impacts 6.46 of the environment.

I would choose plastic, I would choose plastic because they are biodegrable. Also they have a veggie smell to them.wich means that it would not make the house smell bad. Plastic impacts the enviorment much less than paper does. Plastic s also very strong/sturdy so it will not break easy, wich means I can hold a lot of stuff (garbage).
From what I have found paper and plastic bags doesn't have a lot of bacteria on it, but they have made a lot of trash. Reusable bags mean less garbage but has more bacteria. If we find a better use for paper and plastic that can make a difference if the world, then I see no problem with keeping it. Bacteria on bags that you use over and over again and it might be getting on your food or packaging. We just need to find better ways with our "trash". For example china had plastic problems so they now pay for bags.
I would choose reusable bags. They are good for the environment. They carry bacteria. You can wash them. You wouldn't have to waste paper or plastic.
I think reusable bags are the best choice. The other bags get thrown away and are no use after an average of 20 minutes. The other bags also use up a lot of resources that will leave a heavy environmental impact. The reusable bags do grow bacteria but they can be washed.
I have always used plastic bags. I learned plastic bags can be really harmful to the environment.I think i will start using reusable bags.This way we wont waste plastic and it will help the environment.I think using a reusable bag will be a good choice and will be very helpful to the environment.
I would choose reusable bags because, they help the earth. Also, you can use them more than once. But you should wash them every other time, smo you don't get bacteria. So then, you'll waste some water. But in my opinion this is my choice, because i think it's safer for the environment.
So far it looks as though reusable bags are crushing the competition! I find this to be a good choice just by some of the supporting facts that have been given. I found it interesting that there are more choosing plastic than paper though. I am not saying this is right or wrong just interesting. I enjoyed reading all the comments, can't wait for the rest!!!
If I were going to Carrie my groceries in a plastic p, paper, or reusable, bag I would use a reusable bag. One reason I would use this bag is be use it reduces my use of plastic bags. Another reason I would use a reusable bag is because it lasts a long time . But there is a dangerous flaw to this Eco friendly bag, it harbors bacteria. So that means clean the bag after you use it. If you don't wash your bag you can get very sick or die. Reusable bags are better plastic and paper because plastic bags stay around for years and years and pollute the earth. Paper bags use to many materials in the making process and they pollute to because people don't recycle them.
Plastic bags are common in a lot of the worlds trash. Thats a bad thing. Paper or reusable bags are a lot better. But reusable bags can grow bacteria inside of them. So paper bags are a lot safer and better for the enviroment to. So i choose paper bags!
Reusable bags a famaly use for garbig pop cans. You can use the bags for pop cans and bolters to cash the pop cans and boltos in? Chase blakeslee p,d one
i prefer reusable bags.yes they have good things about them and bad. reusable bags are good because they are healthy for the envioment, they are reusable, and they are a new fashion. reusable bags are also bad because it habors bacteria,and have harsh chemicals. reusable bags arent my first pick but their better than paper and plastic.
If in went to a store and they asked paper or plastic i would say plastic. because its not like i just throw it away. i use as a trash bag in the bathroom. then we throw them away with whats in side it. we dont waste plastic bags at my house.
