Eventually we should avoid using plastic bags altogether and this is why eCoexist proposes you a variety of cloth bags. In the meantime, recycling plastic bags is a good way of keeping them out of the waste bin and reducing the load on the waste management systems.

Here is something that will make it easier for you to recycle your plastic bags. This recycler can be hung behind the kitchen door - you put in plastic bags from above and pull them out from below as needed.

The recycler has been made using left over and recycled cotton fabrics and is a colourful accessory for your kitchen. It will be made by women of self help groups in slums of Pune.
