Lots of the bags are bio-degradable, so they will eventually, in some unit of months or years, break down.

Of course, its the same issue as chucking a banana peel. It fucks with the local environment and will take a long time to be "gone" if you just throw it into a forest and walk away. Enough people do that, and eventually you have a trail covered in shit and bananas.
