The supermarket I use in the UK (Tesco) sells a very strong plastic bag called a "Bag for life" for about 20c. It has a nice design on it, and the guarantee is that if one falls apart, they will give you another. I always use these. The oldest one I have, (still in regular use I might add), is about 4 years old. \nThis seems to me to be the best option by far!

Today it is done with high tech scanners and even more high tech photo quality printers. That's the easy part. the hard part is getting the right quality paper because it's almost a cloth material.

Durable. Perishable, and Non-perishable would be a better category to choose from.

Depends on the quality of the bag (how much weight it can withstand) and the density that you want it to be. You can use old newspaper packed tightly inside, old rags for a slightly more dense (harder) bag, or even sand for a really dense, heavy bag. If you use sand make sure it is a top quality bag.

El Chingon ~\n                     What's up Vato! In my opinion, you want to get something that's going to last you a while. Go with a water bag Ringside.com has them, the best thing about them other than their durability is, it's easy on your hands, it actually feels like you're hitting a person to the body. I've had mine for close to 8 years now, considering what I paid for it you can't beat it.\n\n                      Leather and vinyl bags can be easily repaired with duct tape like the guy mentioned above some bags can last up to twenty years with proper care. The only thing wrong with these bags is sometimes the sand (if you use sand) settles at the bottom of the bag and when you hit it, it feels like your hitting a brick wall. The water bags never settle. Good luck.

I think what you heard was "linen". Money does have fabric threads and could be called a "linen" paper.

A big brown paper bag, you can get them at any grocery store! And don't forget to cut the eye holes!!!

Paper, thin sheets of compressed vegetable cellulose fibers. Paper is used for writing and printing, for wrapping and packaging, and for a variety of special purposes ranging from the filtration of precipitates from solutions to the manufacture of certain types of building materials. Paper is a necessity in modern civilization, and the development of machinery for its high-speed production has been largely responsible for the increase in literacy and the raising of educational levels of people throughout the world.\n\n\nThe basic process of making paper has not changed in more than 2,000 years. It involves two stages: the breaking up of raw material in water to form a suspension of individual fibers and the formation of felted sheets by spreading this suspension on a suitable porous surface, through which excess water can drain.\n\nIn making paper by hand, the raw material—straw, leaves, bark, rags, or other fibrous material—is placed in a vat or trough and is pounded with a heavy pestle or hammer to separate the fibers. During the first portion of this operation, the material is washed with running water to remove impurities, but after the fibers have been sufficiently broken up, they are kept in suspension, and the water in the vat is not changed. At this stage the liquid material, called half stuff, is ready for the actual process of papermaking. The chief tool of the papermaker is the mold, a reinforced sheet of metal mesh having either a square mesh pattern, called a wove pattern, or a pattern of more widely spaced longitudinal wires held together with smaller transverse wires, called a laid pattern. The mold pattern imprints itself on the finished sheet of paper, and thus handmade papers that are not given special finishes are identified as wove or laid papers, depending on the style of mold that is used in their making.\n\nThe mold is placed inside a removable wooden frame called a deckle, which forms a low rim around its edge. The papermaker dips the mold and deckle into a vat containing the half stuff; when the mold and deckle are removed from the vat, the surface of the mold is coated with a thin film of fiber-water mixture. The device is then shaken forward and backward and from side to side. This shaking has two effects; it distributes the mixture evenly on the surface of the mold and causes the individual fibers to interlock with those adjacent, giving strength to the sheet. While the device is being shaken, much of the water from the mixture drains out through the mold mesh. The device, with its formed sheet of wet paper, is then laid aside until the paper is sufficiently cohesive to permit the removal of the deckle.\n\n\nAfter the deckle has been taken from the mold, the mold is turned over and the sheet of paper is laid smoothly on a sheet of woven woolen cloth, called a felt. Another felt is laid over the sheet of paper, and the process is repeated; the process of placing the paper between two felts is known as couching. When a number of sheets of paper have been interleaved with felts, the entire pile, called a post, is placed in a hydraulic press and subjected to a pressure of 100 or more tons, expelling most of the water remaining in the paper. The sheets of paper are then separated from the felts, stacked, and pressed. The process of pressing the stack of paper is repeated several times, and each time the stack is built up in a different order with the individual sheets in different positions relative to one another. This procedure is called exchanging, and its repetition improves the surface of the finished paper. The final stage in papermaking is drying. The paper is hung, in groups of four or five sheets, over ropes in a special drying room until its moisture has almost completely evaporated.\n\nPapers that are to be used for writing or printing with ink require additional treatment following drying, because without such treatment the paper would absorb ink and yield fuzzy lines or impressions.

Something that you need and that youe will use. I hate getting more junk that I wont use that just takes up space. Think of something you really need and want.

Plastics last forever.  They are not biodegradable.

Regular paper.  You need to check your printer to see if you left something in it that was supposed to be removed.  Or maybe something fell in.....that's causing the paper to jam.

I try, i recycle and try very hard not to waste water, but i always feel so guilty everytime i put another plastic milk bottle in the bin or a juice carton etc... it is scary to think how much packaging is used and thrown into the bin. I think we should be writing to retailers and asking them to reduce their packaging. I purchase products for the product inside, not the wrapping. I think in the future people may end up living like humans used to in the past with out electricity and cars. We should all do our bit, and get on the case of the people who make the decisions.  Great, thought provoking question.

I think back on the years actions and think of how much crap I recycle, and that if we didn't care so much about packaging that I wouldn't have do recycle so damn much.  Why is there a piece of tagboard wrapped around my styrofoam cup o noodles?  NOT NECESSARY!  The cup tells all I need to know.  Inside is Beef Flavored Sodium and fried noodles.  NUF SAID.  Toys should be vacuum packed in bright red plastic.  Recyclable- that's it, no box, instruction sheet, tag, insert, sparkly logo.  Packaging pisses me off.  But I love Earth Day.

I've been using a plastic water bottle again and again (for drinking water from), and I've been fine, however if you are worried, then wash it out properly between uses (as in with detergent and hot water).  We use glasses again and again, and this is considered ok, so why not plastic water bottles?

D.  Paper.  Why?  Try to think in reverse on these types of questions.  Milk is a LIQUID & it is used to made the cheese which is a SOLID. ........Wood is a SOLID,  which is turned into a LIQUID to make paper!

Litter.\n\nI know it is probably not as dangerous to our health as Air Water or Noise but it is such a simple thing for people to take control of.\n\nDrives me nuts to see someone just toss there garbage out the car window or to the gutter when they are walking. \n\nPigs.
