BBPB California
Who are we?
From the beginning, our mission has been to better the environment by reducing the number of plastic bags. Along with people all around the world, we work to reduce the number of plastic bags and switch to a more eco friendly option. We consider it a privilege and an honor to be able to help the world around us and be the next movement of BBPB. As the world continues to evolve, our mission statement will always remain the same: helping the environment around us by encouraging our community to say no to single-use plastics.
