Further Description
Why Use If You Care FSC® & Compostable Certified Unbleached TCF Snack & Sandwich Bags? Each year more than 30 million acres of natural forests are destroyed by illegal logging and land clearance. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) promotes responsible forest management through a rigorous certification system of forests and forest products. When you buy If You Care FSC Certified Snack & Sandwich Bags you know the paper is from forests that comply with rigorous-environmental and social standards. Every year 80 million tons of waste (U.S. EPA figure) that goes into U.S. landfills is material which could be turned into compost under the right conditions. In landfills, this organic material releases methane-a powerful greenhouse gas-contributing to global warming. Diverting food scraps from landfill to compost facilities contributes significantly to preserving our planet and natural resources. If You Care Certified Compostable Snack & Sandwich Bags are certified for municipal or commercial composting as well as for backyard or home composting. If You Care Snack & Sandwich Bags are made from unbleached totally chlorine-free (TCF) paper. Since no chlorine or its derivatives are used, no chlorine or its derivatives get dumped into lakes, rivers or streams. This is an If You Care® product.
