Now that consumers are doing their part to protect the planet, ecological green bags and eco reusable bagsare becoming an established replacement for disposable plastic shopping bags. But, a recent study has shown some of these reusable alternatives could contain unacceptable levels of lead in them.
Recent experiments conducted on bags by independent laboratories at the Publix University of South Florida showed some of the go green reusable bags or green tote bags had lead levels of 194 parts per million. Though this is below the government stipulation of 300 parts per million for most products, it exceeds the stipulated level for children’s products, which is only 100 parts per million.
Tests conducted within one other marketing area for Wegmans grocery stores in five states across the East coast showed concerning quantities of 799 parts per million,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], substantially higher than the previously mentioned stipulation of 300 parts per million. These bags were removed from the outlets and are no longer being sold. After these results were revealed, more companies surveyed their bags, grocery bagswith many containing less lead, while others exceeded satisfactory amounts.
These results cause shoppers to be concerned, should they or shouldn’t they use the bags? According to experts, the harm is not caused by the |grocery bags reusable properties at the food market, but derives from what transpires when these items are ultimately discarded. At that point, the lead runs the risk of polluting the ground. Since the lead in the bag isn’t the type that can leach easily into food, they still constitute a more suitable option than the plastic bags which most people discard and which clutter landfills.
