Reduce your dog's carbon pawprint with BioBags dog poop scoop bags
I just got a dog and it started me thinking about all the things I'll need, and if there are eco-friendly options. The first thing that came to mind was the poop scoop bags. I go out of my way to avoid plastic bags every minute of the day, so there's no way I'll be scooping my dog's poop up in a bag and adding it to landfill. There are several types of biodegradable bags available, including these ones by BioBags. Made from corn starch and vegetable oil they contain no plastics, and cost £7.50 for 100.

But, I still don't like the idea of putting the BioBag and it's contents in the bin, so I investigated other ways to dispose of the waste, and found this link on the BBC website which tells you all about better ways to get rid of dog poo, including in a wormery, in a dog waste decomposer, or down the loo. I'll happily do what it takes to stop my dog's mess messing up the environment, if only everyone did the same.

Carbon pawprint?
Something makes me think you're serious, Tiffany.
Nothing you or your dog does is going to trash the
planet. "Global warming" is a farce. Read the
real science, don't pay attention to the
lies you hear from CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, PBS, NPR
and the NY Times.
The Earth's temperature climbed more during Leif
Ericksen's time than it has recently.
We have these recurring patterns called cycles, see?
Yes, I realize "recurring", "pattern" and
"cycle" are redundant terms. It takes a few
iterations to get liberals to think...
Man's "carbon footprint" accounts for less than
1% of ALL CARBON on the globe. Want to get rid of
carbon? Get rid of the trees.

Your advocating putting canine waste in a worm bed
shows me just how clueless you are.
Do your research before you open your gob.
