From the study: Conventional cotton bags: Reuse for grocery shopping at least 52 times for climate change, and up to 7100 times considering all indicators; reuse as waste bin bag if possible, otherwise incinerate.
50 times seems real easy, all of mine have been used more often than that. 7000 seems hard to accomplish in a lifetime, though, to me anyway. If I forgot to bring one at a store, I buy a paper bag (which get good grades in the study) and reuse it for paper recycling. Or I reuse discarded cardboard containers available in the store.
