Paper Bag Day is celebrated every year on July 12 to raise awareness about the harmful effects of plastic bags and to encourage people to use eco-friendly alternatives like paper bags.

Paper bags are biodegradable, recyclable, and safe for the environment. Unlike plastic, they don’t harm animals or pollute our soil and oceans. This day reminds us that even small choices—like choosing a paper bag—can help protect our planet.

By using paper bags, we reduce plastic pollution, save marine life, and support a cleaner and healthier Earth. Let’s all come together to make better choices for the environment—because every small step counts!

Carry change in a paper bag—and let the Earth smile back!
