Proposal to restrict single-use plastic bags
The House of Representatives proposed a bill regarding the reduction of single-use plastic bags and the regulation of sustainable alternatives, aiming to reduce environmental pollution and protect public health. The project includes a phased plan to prevent the distribution and sale of these bags within 12 months of the law's enactment, with exceptions for reusable and biodegradable bags. The law also imposes strict technical standards on permitted bags and emphasizes control and technical oversight. It includes severe punitive measures, including fines and imprisonment for violations. The law seeks to promote a circular economy, support sustainable industries, and hold producers more broadly responsible for environmental impact.
