Which will you prefer most plastic bags or paper bags?
Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Paper bags are better for the environment because they are biodegradable, but in order to make paper bags, more trees need to be cut down. They are also less convenient to carry if you do not have a car. They also rip easily if something leaks inside them, but that is usually a minor inconvenience. Plastic bags are easier to carry, but they take hundreds of years to disintegrate; plastic bags can also kill wildlife- plastic stuck on birds' beaks when they forage through trash can melt in the sun and prevent them from eating and breathing. Animals can also choke on plastic bags, if accidentally swallowed. The compromise: If you have a car, choose paper bags, and after you're done emptying them, save them for garden debris or storing light materials away. If you have to walk to the store, choose plastic bags, but don't throw them away- you can take them with you to use again. An even better idea is to purchase a reusable cloth bag with handles; they are inexpensive, washable, and will not produce any trash. If you're worried about bacteria accumulating from packaged foods such as raw meats, just make sure you wash all your bags between grocery store trips.

Can non-woven bags truly replace plastic bags to promote environmental friendliness?
Um. I'm not sure, but if you want to be environmentally friendly about the issue, then you should buy something that can be reused over and over. Like for example, if you want to go shopping to the food market/store you can put all of your groceries in there. And, keep reusing the bag again every time you go there. And, it's good for the environment because the plastic bags won't be polluting the waters that much anymore! And, I think non-woven bags might be able to replace plastic bags. Truly, it might even be better than plastic bags
