Studies have shown that even alternative "compostable " or "biodegradable " bags require very speciftc and controlled conditions in order to biodegrade, and have potentially negative environmental effects similar to conventional plastic bags. Such bags should therefore be subject to the same restrictions as conventional plastic check-out bags. For these reasons this article has been created to reduce non -recyclable plastic waste by reducing the amount ofsingle-use bags used every year.
