加利福尼亚州立法者通过法案禁止塑料袋,引起对成本和效益的批评。 California lawmakers progress bills to ban plastic bags, sparking criticism over cost and effectiveness.

加州立法者提出法案禁止塑料袋, California lawmakers advance bills to ban plastic bags, sparking criticism. 参议院第1053号法案和议会第2236号法案旨在用纸袋或可再使用塑料袋取代塑料袋,但批评者认为,这将增加成本,对减少塑料废物没有多大帮助,因为自2014年全州禁止单一用途塑料以来,加利福尼亚的塑料废物增加了近50%。 Senate Bill 1053 and Assembly Bill 2236 aim to replace plastic bags with paper bags or reusable ones, but critics argue that this will increase costs and do little to reduce plastic waste, as California's plastic waste has risen by nearly 50% since the 2014 statewide ban on single-use plastics. 批评者建议更有效地改善回收利用和针对塑料污染。 Critics suggest improving recycling and targeting plastic pollution more effectively.
