Forget Paper vs. Plastic, Get a Cool AIDG Tote 

by Catherine Laine
July 7th, 2007

Shameless plug for AIDG products from Cafepress.

AIDG Tote Bag: Pinwheel AIDG Tote Bag: Think of the Penguins
Forget paper or plastic. Get a cool AIDG Tote

You stand at the cash register, paralyzed with indecision. Paper or plastic? Which is better or worse?

On the paper side, you’ve got the cutting down of trees/destruction of forests, the bleaching, the processing, the fact that they take more energy to produce than plastic, the horror, the horror. On the plastic side, you’ve got a product that lasts 500 or more years in the environment that you’re probably going to use for an hour or so. It chokes rivers and oceans, hurts marine life, creates unsightly litter, etc. etc.

Skip out of that choice altogether by using a stylish tote bag. We’ve got some very cool ones over at cafepress: Pinwheel and Think of the Penguins.

Get one today!
