My Compact Green Bag

I discovered this really lovely tote bag after I went in National Bookstore to buy a pen. It is very handy you can carry it every day just in case you’ll be having unexpected shopping. That way, you don’t have to use the store’s packaging, which most probably is a plastic. Thus, you will be reducing plastic usage that, I think, is the major contributor in our waste.

The Girl Who Silenced the World for 5 Minutes
