India's Recent Plastics Ban Sees Little Success

  • 7 years ago
India's judicial authority recently banned the use of all disposable plastic in New Delhi, but the ban has yet to show any visible impact.

The ban was implemented after complaints of illegal mass burnings of waste and plastic at New Delhi's three dumping sites, but more than a month later, the streets of Delhi look the same.

Most vendors say they didn’t even know about the new ban, while others say they have no alternatives.
