The Unzipped Glass Bag is a revolutionary glass goods jar that resembles a plastic Ziplock Bag. Made from fine hand-blown glass, it is not only classy, but a lot of fun too.
Always open and reusable, the Unzipped Glass Bag can hold things from cashews to chocolate. The only problem is that with no lid, you will probably find it hard to keep your hand out of the cookie jar.
Implications - Ziplock bags are enormously popular with consumers as they act as a way for users to increase the portability of their household objects, food and other goods. WIth that being said there are also negative consequences to the lack of reusability that plastic bags provide, which demonstrates that consumers are willing to forgo portability in order to achieve eco-sustainability.
