费城将自2026年1月起对单用纸袋征收10美分的废纸费,
Philadelphia will impose a 10-cent fee on single-use paper bags starting January 2026 to cut waste, despite the mayor’s objections.
从2026年1月开始, 费城将在市议会投票后, 对零售商店的单用纸袋收取10%的收费, 绕过Cherelle Parker市长未签名的投票。
Starting January 2026, Philadelphia will charge a 10-cent fee for single-use paper bags at retail stores, following a City Council vote that bypassed Mayor Cherelle Parker’s non-signature.
该法旨在减少废物和垃圾,允许零售商保留费用,并免收易腐货物、外卖和交货的包装袋。
The law, aimed at reducing waste and litter, allows retailers to keep the fee and exempts bags for perishable goods, takeout, and deliveries.
虽然Parker对低收入居民和小企业受到的影响表示关切,但这项措施以10票获得通过,在推翻否决权所需的12张表决票中,仅剩了10张。
Though Parker raised concerns about impacts on low-income residents and small businesses, the measure passed with 10 votes—short of the 12 needed to override a veto.
收费适用于在报到时使用的袋子,而不是外卖或交货用的袋子,并遵循2021年塑料袋禁令,增加了纸袋的使用量。
The fee applies to bags used at checkout, not those for takeout or delivery, and follows a 2021 plastic bag ban that increased paper bag use.
