China take action over "White Pollution"

The final version of the Chinese plastic bag regulation has been released and it goes a long way further than any Western Government have, as yet, dared to.

It will be illegal in China for retailers to subsidise the cost of plastic bags, punishable by a fine of about £700, and all plastic bags must meet quality standards. China has also closed the largest plastic bag producing factory in the world that was producing a quarter of a million tons of plastic bags annually.

Well done China!
