Description
More "Earth Saving" stuff from my gallery :Anti-Pollution Advertising.
Most plastic bags take over 400 years to biodegrade. Some figures indicate that plastic bags could take over 1000 years to break down. (I guess nobody will live long enough to find out!). This means not one plastic bag has ever naturally biodegraded.

this is late like a year but i want to point this out for i feel like talking:
in my town, with the grocery stores when you enter, they have these bins where you drop off plastic bags so they can be recycled. they've done it for years now and they've always got a fresh supply of plastic bags (whenever i go to drop off our bags, it's always too full OTL)
but yeah /awkward

I'd be amazing if you added at the end: Give peace to earth. But the implied message is great. Beautiful work.

We reuse the bags that they give us until they we can't anymore. The bags tend to fall apart and become slug like. It's fun.

nice design but i disagree, i love plastic bags and it takes far more energy to make even a paper bag or hemp bag than a bunch of plastic ones.

But you can reuse the other kind of bags and plastic bags cost companies about 25 cents a bag.

I've seen all the pieces in this collection now and I think I might fav all of them because they're all great in their own way. The symbolism is so brilliantly clear and so stylishly presented. I can't think of anything "negative" to say about it, and I'm very happy to see someone so talented say something this important and creating something great to look at to boot.

Thank you, I really appreciate it

Do you get a lot of exposure for this stuff? Is it professional work? I mean it sure looks professional but these are the things that people need to be reminded about 24/7 if things are ever gonna change. So I hope you get it out there.

I'm only 17 years and I've never take courses or something like that...So I'm not professional at all ^^
Maybe one day...who know
Thank you very much

WOW! Okay that's just amazing. Now I'm even happier you're using your talent to do good things cuz you still have so many years ahead of you to get even better. Let me internet-slap your back man.
And hey, don't let anyone pressure you to do stuff you don't wanna do, just cuz you have a talent, right? That set me back YEARS.
Never taken any courses huh? When you're this good, just telling people that is gonna help you score.

Thank you so much for your support 
And yeah, that's what people tell me... Especially my 2 cousins, they are in the graphic design business and everything and they are always amaze by new work. I can't wait to start courses and be a professional!
Thanks

You're on my watch list now, cuz I think this stuff's great.
So are you going to go to school with this stuff, then? Planning for university or college? Do you ever paint and draw, or is it always digital?
π: 0 β©: 1
Okay, thank you very much for your support.
I'm going to university and I might go in graphic design AND publicity, both of them 
If I draw ? Yeah. Paint? No.
