Award-winning film Bag It, a touching and often funny documentary about how we use and abuse plastic.
Bag It follows Jeb Berrier as he tries to make sense of our dependence on plastic bags. Although his quest starts out small, Jeb soon learns that the problem extends past landfills to oceans, rivers and ultimately human
health.
The average American uses about 500 plastic bags each year, for about twelve
minutes each. This single-use mentality has led to the formation of a floating
island of plastic debris in the Pacific Ocean more than twice the size of Texas.
