Tournament Round 2, Match 8 - (2) Canvas Bags vs. (3) Recycled Products

Savor this moment! It's the very last match up of Round 2!

Canvas Bags

Green Pride (17/20)
I think I mentioned this last round, but there aren't a lot of Green ideas that can be used as fashion statements. Canvas Bags are one of them. Bags can have fun slogans advertising how much better they are for the environment then their friends. They can have fun pictures that demonstrate how much better they are for the environment then their friends. They can even have advertisements for companies that are clearly better for the environment than the companies that your friends shop at. Basically, what I'm saying is that people are proud of their Canvas Bags.

Green Guilt (16/20)
People are pretty guilty nowadays when it comes to not using Canvas Bags. It makes it even worse that they always have the bags hanging there right next to the cashier, just staring you down as if they're judging you, saying "Why do you hate the environment?" I mean, you can almost picture their sad little puppy dog eyes boring holes through your soul.

For three!!! I mean... two!!!

Recycled Products

Green Pride (17/20)
You know how I mentioned that there aren't a lot of ideas that can be used as fashion statements? Well, you can use Recycled Products as fashion statements too. For example, I have a t-shirt made of recycled Coke bottles. People can also have book bags or hats or purses made of Recycled Products. And let me tell you, as someone who wears clothing made of Coke bottles, people who wear Recycled Products like to tell other people about their Green-ness.

Green Guilt (4/20)
There's not a whole lot of pressure from society to buy Recycled Products. It's mainly a voluntary thing. You know, kind of like extra credit. You can still pass (environmentally), but it would be a whole lot easier with extra credit (Recycled Products). Nobody feels guilty for not doing extra credit.

  1. Recycling next time. I don't know what it's going up against, since it lost on my bracket, so naturally I have to vote for recycling.
