Again, I was in the grocery
last week & noticed the sm GreenBag
stall near the check-out counter. These
are recyclable green bags that you can use
instead of the yellow plastics.

Here's what i learned about the GreenBAg :
* It was given away for free the 1st 3 months & is now being sold at less than P100.
* It can actually last for 2 years with the weekly grocery trips
* You get 2 extra points on your sm advantage card whenever you use a greenbag & there is a maximum of 3 greenbags per transaction
* reduces oil consumption & operating costs
* helps solid waste management
* plastic bags clog the waterways & kill marine life
* most plastics are non-biogradable & burning it is harmful to the ozone layer
SM hypermart launched SM CARES (Concerned And Responsible Eco-Shoppers) last July & the greenbag was its 1st project. They also have the waste trade market where you can exchange plastic bottles, cardboard, ink cartridges & other recyclabe materials for school supplies, tissues,hangers & other housewares.
You don't need to have a green thumb to help save the environment, maybe just a greenbag. Little things like using these recyclable bags go a long way. There is still something you can do about global warming.
Mother earth will thank you =)

We also have that here in the US. Everytime mag gro grocery ako andaming bag na dala ko...kaya stop na ako kasi $1 per bag....butas na bulsa ko...LOL!
wow naman. buti may ganito na! sana meron din dito sa cdo. :)
I bought some stuff from SM Cebu and the Blue plastic bag says it's Biodegradable. SM's following the footsteps of WalMart, which, too, went green. :D
