In recent years, many retailers (e.g. fashion, food and beverage) have switched to using paper bags to pack items for customers, as paper bags are deemed more eco-friendly than plastic bags.

1. Compare the environmental impact of paper and plastic bags in Singapore's context. Note: You should consider the whole life cycle of the bags when evaluating their environmental impact.

2. For companies that use paper bags, propose one solution to help them reduce their environmental impact.
