Plastic bags float through every part of the world, in every person's life. They float into streets, beaches, and oceans. Recently, one plastic bag was even found at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. The deepest accessible part of the world, closest to the Earth's core, was afflicted by a man-made plastic bag that will not biodegrade for at least 500 years, if not significantly longer. The damage that plastic bags bring to the environment as a whole is extensive, and unfortunately, many people still choose to carry 15 plastic bags of groceries into the house rather than 1 large reusable bag to replace all 15 of the plastic ones.
Unlike the United States, many countries around the world are making an effort to change this though. Canada is one of those countries, and the owner of the East West Market has taken an...interesting approach to discouraging the use of plastic bags in his store. To start, any customer who would like to use plastic bags instead of reusable bags is charged $0.05 per bag, an increasingly common practice around the world. This was not enough though. A more creative approach to the deterrence of plastic bag use was necessary. Something that would simultaneously spark a conversation would be even better.
Ah ha!

Into the Weird Adult Video Emporium

The Colon Care Co-Op

Yes, that'll surely get the job done. 

The owner of the Vancouver Market decided to print these slogans on their plastic bags in an effort to slightly embarrass their customers into using reusable bags, or at the very least not a plastic bag for fear of walking down the street with a produce filled bag emblazoned "Into the Weird Adult Video Emporium". That may turn a few more heads than expected. As silly as the slogans are, they do serve a real purpose. In a smaller font underneath the slogan are the words "Avoid the shame. Bring a reusable bag." Unfortunately, the cheeky idea backfired, and people began to come in just to purchase the bags for their funny slogans. Although the original plan may not have worked out, the conversation was still started and the owner plans to print the same slogans on reusable bags to encourage their use just as much.  

This creative approach has the ability to make a big splash, especially as Canada has announced their goal to ban single-use plastics by 2021. At the very least, these bags are a great proponent of the conversation as they are not nearly as easily forgotten plastic is thrown out.
