    Plastic bags have become a major environmental problem because the millions used by people every year take a very long time to break down. Australians alone use around 5 billion plastic checkout bags annually, with similar populations like Malaysia using just as much. Plastic bag litter kills over 100,000 marine animals each year by being eaten or through suffocation, and on land it can block drains, trap birds, and has even been found in the stomach of a dead calf during an autopsy. Reducing plastic bag use by bringing reusable bags or saying no to plastic bags at checkout can help address this growing waste issue.
