Paper or Plastic?

Paper or plastic? I think the answer should be 7 paper and the rest plastic.

Full disclosure my uncle owned a plastics factory and my mom lives on a tree farm. She showed us this trick. The trash can is a huge source of disease. Reutilizing consumer packaging is the right thing to do. Using one paper bag and 1 plastic bag you can make a disposable trash can. Now this won't replace your kitchen trash can or any other heavily used refuse container but it does serve well.
Equipment: one paper and one plastic bag.

Step 1:  Roll the edges of the paper bag until they are the same height of the plastic bag.

Step 2: Line the paper bag with plastic bag and you have a disposable trash can.

When full or contaminated simply dispose as you normally do.
Next time I will utilize a gray bag so the photo shows up better.
