\nJust last week, the people of Lebanon broke the world record for the world\u2019s largest hand-painted canvas, leaving hand-prints on 4,355 square meters of fabric. With the record broken and jotted down in the Guinness Book of World Records<\/a>, the organizers of the event were left scratching their chins thinking of a good way to get rid of the humongous canvas<\/a> and finally came up with an innovative idea to recycle it and give it a new purpose in life, turning it all into 5,000 environment \u2013friendly shopping bags<\/a>. These bags can be used as reusable alternatives to one-time-use plastic bags<\/a>.<\/p>\n


\nThe canvas bags are to be handed out for free in
Lebanon<\/a> and are sure to work as healthy reminders of recycling for the people and act as a better way to carry their shopping around.
