michael picked Plastic, indeed:
I try to bring in canvas or reusable bags, but when I forget (or run out of space) I get plastic because I can reuse them to bag recycleable plastics and then recycle them.

I used to think that it was some kind of movie conspiracy that you could only get paper bags in American Supermarkets... but then I went over and found that there were plastic ones, but I never got offered them! The Paper ones were rubbish... you can only really carry 2 at the very most, and NO HANDLES! What the hell is that about?!

LilyLovegood picked Plastic, indeed:
I work in a grocery store so I know that paper is much much expensive for the companies to get nowadays. Plastic is bad for the environment, paper kills trees...honestly the best solution is to have customers bring their own bags.

office_fan51 picked Plastic, indeed:
Plastic is actually better for the environment. It uses far fewer resources and the production pollutes less. There was an article about it in the washington post. people think that paper bags decompose, but they get covered up so fast in landfills that they don't decompose for a long time. There was an article about it in the Washington Post. If you really care about the environment then you should be cool and bring your own bags.

...why do i know this?! :)

blisslikethis picked Paper, of course:
office_fan - plastic bags take even longer to decompose than paper. the issue, i think, is recycling; paper is just easier to recycle (recycle, not reuse). and yes, of course it's better to bring cloth or biodegradable corn plastic! which are my bags of choice :)

Pippi21 picked Plastic, indeed:
Paper bags really are worse for the environment than plastic ones. With the tree-cutting and the manufacturing and the decomposing and stuff... Plus you can recycle plastic as well. PLUS did you know they now make biodegradable plastic, it's a little weird and it makes a lot of noise, but it works..
But I always bring my own bag.

daisy_star4444 picked Plastic, indeed:
PLASTIC IS WAY BETTER!!!
1: Energy and natural resources
ENERGY TO PRODUCE BAG ORIGINALLY (BTUs)
Safeway Plastic Bags: 594 BTUs
Safeway Paper Bags: 2511 BTUs

2: Pollution
POLLUTANTS PAPER V.S. PLASTIC
Paper sacks generate 70% more air and 50 times more water pollutants than plastic bags.
3: Recycling
ENERGY TO RECYCLE PACKAGE ONCE (BTUs)
Safeway Plastic Bags: 17 BTUs
Safeway Paper Bags: 1444 BTUs

4: Degradability
Current research demonstrates that paper in today's landfills does not degrade or break down at a substantially faster rate than plastic does

Reusable bags are better, but between paper and plastic, Plastic is way better!!!

Given the choice I take plastic most of the time, but cloth is preferable to both! ;) Plastic can be reused for all kinds purposes and recycled--just two of its advantages.
