Bag Monster® Events - Bioneers and Greenschools

Bag Monster® at Bioneers!
Bag Monster® made an appearance at the Bioneers Conference in San Rafael this year, but found that he didn't have much in common with the people there.

He was astonished to see that there was not a single plastic bag in sight. Almost everyone there was using reusable bags from ChicoBag™.

Bag Monster® was about ready to give up on this crowd of ChicoBag-loving Bioneers when he laid his eyes on something that reminded him of home...a giant bale of plastic bottles!





He was going to take them with him on his way back to the ocean, but to his dismay was told that these bottles would be recycled and never make it to the ocean! Bag Monster's stomach turned at the thought of an ocean without plastic bags...

Apparently there are people who don't like that Bag Monsters® have made a home out of the ocean. Bag Monster® had heard enough about the harms of plastic bags and their negative impact on the environment and marine life so he caught the wind to Maryland for a greenschools event.



Students from Wakefield, MA, were thrilled to meet Bag Monster! 


Bag Monster® teamed up with greenschools, a non-profit organization and their Sustainable Music Program to educate students about ways to make a difference.

um, so I can't pin a bunch of bags to me for Hallowe'en beause it's a registere trademark. Or I just can't call myself a Bag Monster or use exactly 500 bags...? Or I have to advertise chico bags... I love this idea, and might want to dress up for Hallowe'en, but no interest in breaking your copyright/trademark. maryinvancouver@gmail.com
