Bali bans single-use plastics, targets 70 per cent reduction in 2019

JAKARTA - Bali has taken a big step to curb pollution in its waters, enacting a ban on single-use plastics including shopping bags, styrofoam, and straws.

Bali Governor Wayan Koster announced the ban on Monday (Dec 24), and expressed hope that the policy would lead to a 70 per cent decline in Bali's marine plastics within a year.

The new policy carries a six-month grace period dating from Dec 21, when it was signed and took effect.
