Our Top Five Best Sellers to eliminate plastic

For All Doggy Lovers
As a dog owner, I was hugely concerned that the general excess of plastic bags left over from the weekly shopping that I used to collect my doggy doos were contributing to the landfill waste that would not break down for 100's if not 1,000's of years. I was elated to discover that the new ecopack compostable bags break down in a few months. Made from fully natural products we have peace of mind that we are aiding in the environmental quest to save our planet for future generations. Although currently for landfill only, these are still the best solution in the market place. However watch this space for the new issue coming out in July which will degrade in your own compost garden within 30-60 days. Love this product!

Humans buy a million plastic bottles a minute and 93% of them aren’t recycled
Globally, humans are purchasing a million plastic bottles every single minute, according to a report by Euromonitor International.
That’s 20,000 bottles every second and almost half a trillion bottles a year.
Only 7% of them are recycled into new bottles, according to The Guardian.
Although some trendy companies are turning them into t-shirts, shoes and other articles of polyester clothing, the vast majority end up in landfills or the ocean.
It takes around 500 years for plastic bottles to degrade, and they pretty much never biodegrade. They just break into little micro plastics that contaminate soil and water.
It is estimated there will be more plastic than fish in the sea by 2050.
Perhaps consider investing in a water filter and a glass/stainless steel water bottle:
