Top 10 reasons to Bag the Wrap and use "A Better Bag" instead

1. Americans throw away 25% more trash between Thanksgiving and New Year's.
2. A Better Bag is made of 80% post-consumer recycled PET bottles, saving them from going into the trash.
3. In the U.S. alone, about 100 billion plastic bags are thrown away each year (and only 0.6 % of them are recycled).
4. Extra waste during the holidays amounts to 25 million tons of garbage.
5. Using A Better Bag can save millions of single-use bags (and wrapping paper!) from going to the landfill.
6. It's a great-looking, cool, eco-friendly way to wrap gifts.
7. A Better Bag can be used and re-used thousands of times.
8. Whole Foods Market and recording artist Sheryl Crow teamed up to create a custom design for A Better Bag to benefit the Natural Resources Defense Council.
9. If every family wrapped just 3 presents in re-used materials, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields.
10. Double the giving: It's actually a gift that holds another gift which gives and gives again, and says you care even more!
