On March 27, the San Francisco City Council passed a bill to make the city the first US city to ban the use of plastic bags to pack and wrap goods in large supermarkets, to promote the use of plastic bags. Use renewable materials to protect the environment.
Under the new bill (likely to be approved by the mayor of San Francisco), big supermarkets and drugstores in the city in the next six months will have to use recycled plastic bags or reusable bags. .
The City Environment Department reports that every year San Francisco residents use 181 million plastic bags of grocery bags. With this ban, every year the city will save 1.7 million liters of oil, equivalent to the amount of material used to produce the above plastic bags and they do not have to waste the burial of 1,400 tons of untreatable waste.
