According to source #1, bags have also interfered with "water infrastructure equipment" which made some communities ban the bags. Other cities and communities should do the same]]> 2016-09-08 15:20:22 UTC https://padlet.com/yxa210/32e4qdf0pup/wish/122473136 yxa210 https://padlet.com/yxa210/32e4qdf0pup/wish/123192448 Plastic bags are not easy to recycle and the reason is because plastic bags tend to get stuck in the recycling machinery. Most recycling facilities actually do not have enough capacity to recycle bags, Which means that the recycling rate for plastic bags is actually about 5%]]> 2016-09-12 16:04:13 UTC https://padlet.com/yxa210/32e4qdf0pup/wish/123192448 yxa210 https://padlet.com/yxa210/32e4qdf0pup/wish/123223346 Plastic bags are harmful to human health because plastic fragments in the ocean such as plastic bags can absorb pollutants. When marine animals consume plastic that basically have chemicals in the ocean, which can make it's way through the oceans food chain and then into humans who eat fish and other marine animals.]]> 2016-09-12 17:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/yxa210/32e4qdf0pup/wish/123223346 yxa210 https://padlet.com/yxa210/32e4qdf0pup/wish/123229037 There is actually over 30,000 locations for plastic bag recycling, But Do people actually recycle
