Single-use plastics: The next five steps
Hindustan TimesOn July 1, India banned single-use plastics, and pushed a new regulation on plastic bags, requiring them to become thicker over time. The government, especially the Bureau of Indian Standards, must set minimum standards to ensure alternatives can be reused and contain zero-toxicity, keeping the circular economy principles in mind. Moreover, composting can create local jobs, particularly for waste-pickers, who would lose 40-60% of their incomes if every single recyclable plastic was banned in India. Not only should the data include plastics that are banned or are under extended producer responsibility, but also compostable plastics.
