Because it reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Reference page https://www.factorydirectpromos.com/blog/why-are-reusable-grocery-bags-good-for-the-environment-here-are-5-ways-reusable-grocery-bags-help-the-environment/ Reusable bags made from renewable resources help to prevent the buildup of greenhouse gases. When a reusable bag is made from materials like jute, cotton or bamboo, the environment reaps the benefits.

These are renewable materials that have a quick growth rate, so the plants can be harvested and new crops planted in quick succession. Bamboo can be harvested without killing the plant, and the bamboo plant can continue to thrive and convert greenhouse gases into breathable oxygen with no interruption.
