| Help reduce the hundreds of thousands of single-use plastic and paper shopping bags used and discarded everyday AND at the same time help to educate and support school children in learning about the importance of reducing, recycling and re-using. We are BagSpeak, a novel approach to providing consumers with re-usable shopping bags and at the same time, offering elementary, middle school and high school students the opportunity to study in a hands-on way about environmental issues, conservation and reducing, reusing and recycling. We offer the chance for individual students to illustrate a re-usable shopping bag that is then sold in a local retail establishment, with a large portion of the proceeds going back to schools for the purchase of environmental science related materials, field trips, assemblies and teacher professional development. We offer retail businesses a chance to support consumer awareness around the need to bring their own shopping bags and show their support for green practices by sponsoring the sale of the bags in their stores and proudly utilizing the back side of the bag for their marketing purposes. |
