Before You Throw Away That Plastic, Think Again!!!
New Report tells us that wooden substitutes used by supermarkets or in fact for personal use cause deforestation, and bioplastics which decompose take decades to do so and release harmful pollutants into water and soil.

Reusing also allows the plastic to be used to its fullest potential, with the longer lifespan it has before it is then recycled.
