This means that overall positive response in construct this study. The correlation of the plastic bags impact with the pollution is 0.726 (Sig = 0.000). The correlation of the plastic bags impact with the climate changes is 0.668 (Sig = 0.000). Last but not least for the correlation of the plastic bags impact with the damages on living things is 0.687 (Sig=0.000).
