2009 minusbags. All rights reserved. Contact: info@minusbags.com
minusbags are reusable 100% cotton tote bags that provide a stylish and earth-friendly alternative to plastic grocery bags.
minusbags are for the eco-minded shopper that is aware of his or her environmental impact on the world. Created with a
modern design sensibility, these bags demonstrate that you don"t need to forsake style for sustainability.
According to the EPA, more than 380 BILLION plastic bags are used in the U.S. annually -- and an estimated 100 billion
are thrown away each year. Most clog landfills, but many end up snagged on trees and fences as an ugly reminder of our
disposable society. And most plastic grocery bags are not biodegradable. They actually break down into smaller and smaller
toxic particles that pollute our oceans, rivers, lakes and soil. Every year, thousands of animals, particularly marine mammals,
choke to death after mistaking discarded plastic bags for food. Did you know there is a plastic garbage patch the size of
Texas floating around the Pacific Ocean? Read more about it here. The bottom line: PLASTIC BAGS ARE BAD NEWS!
The goal of minusbags is to provide consumers with a reusable shopping bag that combines quality and good design.
They are made in the USA of 100% cotton that is extremely durable yet lightweight enough to fold up into a small bag.
They"re easy to carry along for any unexpected shopping.
minusbags are locally grown!
Designed in Brooklyn and handsewn and screen printed in New Hampshire.
