Description:  :Grocery bag comparisons of environmental impact Number of times a given grocery bag type would have to be reused to have as low greenhouse gas emissions as a standard single-use plastic bag (LDPE; Low-density polyethylene). Environmental impact is measured over a full life-cycle analysis (LCA) across the following metrics: greenhouse gas emissions, ozone depletion, human toxicity (cancer effects), human toxicity (non-cancer effects), photochemical ozone formation, ionizing radiation, particulate matter, terrestrial acidification, terrestrial eutrophication, marine eutrophication, ecosystem toxicity, resource depletion (fossil), resource depletion (abiotic), and water resource depletion.
