FR: Verbod op eenmalige kunststof draagtasjes in 2016?

France is a step closer to implementing a ban on single-use plastic bags in shops following a vote in the French National Assembly in October 2014. If the bill is approved by the Senate the ban could come into force in 2016. The ban does not apply to re-usable or biodegradable bags. The proposed Energy Transition Law (Project de Loi relatif à la transition énergétique pour la croissance verte) also places a ban on disposable plastic cutlery and crockery by 2020.
The law also sets the target of reducing the share of electricity derived from nuclear power to 50% 2025. Another target set is the reduction of greenhouse gasses by 40% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels.
