The Problem: About 20,000 liters of water are needed to produce one kilogram of cotton—the equivalent of one T-shirt and one pair of jeans. Improperly discarded bags have polluted waterways, clogged sewers, and been found in oceans, affecting marine ecosystems. Even when disposed of properly, single-use plastic bags take many years to decompose, generating large amounts of garbage over long periods of time.
