    I remember a while ago reading that the thick plastic bags are worse, because they take so much longer to break down, you have to re-use them something like 1000 times to make them more environmentally friendly than using a thin one that degrades much quicker. This was based on the types of plastic bags in use at UK supermarkets. The thick ones were marketed as ‘bags for life’, which they’re not.
