Fremantle bans plastic bags
Posted on February 16, 2012 by DrRossH in Plastic Limiting RegulationsFreo bans plastic bags – The West Australian.
A near first for Australia. Congratulations to Fremantle for taking the stand. Fremantle is an ocean side city in Western Australia. They have banned non biodegradable bags. Lets hope their officials can distinguish between biodegradable and degradable bags. Degradable bags (made from oxodegradable additives) cause a bag to fragment into little pieces which is worse for the environment. Whereas true biodegradable bags will naturally biodegrade in a landfill.
