BAG IT!

IS YOUR LIFE TOO PLASTIC???

NO with capital N.. not only your life is too plastic, but our life is too plastic, our world is too plastic. No space without plastic, everything is plastic. Unfortunately, I can say we cannot live without plastic. This awesome useful and totally dangerous thing has become part of our life. (and I only hope this will not be permanent part of my life). Poor we are! We live with plastic, we eat with plastic, work with plastic, sleep with plastic, all of our day is with plastic. We cannot be separated.

Then now, lets open our eyes wider and see the message behind a great movie BAG IT. BAG IT is a documentary film (2010) directed by Suzan Bezerra. As I told above, this movie tells about the effects of plastic bag and other plastic and its effect to our beautiful environment, wonderful nature, and even to human body. So, that is what BAG IT movie tells us, to make us realize that OUR LIFE IS TOO PLASTIC, and poor we are as we never realize how harmful it is. We never realized that we have killed so many cute innocent animals outside there because of plastic. Well, we haven’t recognized it yet because we don’t see the impact directly. We only think that plastic is useful, effective and efficient, and of course it makes our life easier.

This documentary movie completely presents to us the history of plastic, especially plastic bag, the phenomenon of plastic bag, some comments from the expert of plastic, and yeaah the bad effects of plastic bag. It shows us clearly how plastic can be a dangerous enemy for environment, animals, and even for human body. And unfortunately we never realize it. most of people will not care of plastic. They just throw it after they use it, and it will fly far far away to the sea and kill some animals living there, or it is buried down, deep deep down to the earth, and in the future we will not see land again, the only thing we can find is the land of plastic.

No body wants this terrible condition, right? so this movie, BAG IT persuades us to care of our environment, to minimize the use of plastic, and start from a little step. DON’T USE PLASTIC BAG! This is a little step we can do right now. Some countries who have realized the danger of plastic have banned the use of plastic bag. They use paper or bag to bring their stuffs. And this will work well. If every country in this world can apply this, we can save our environment step by step.

So, then just let’s do it, from now, from a little step, from ourselves, and don’t make our life too plastic!
