A plastic bag ban is a law that restricts the use of lightweight plastic bags at retail establishments. In the early 21st century, there has been a global trend towards the phase-out of lightweight plastic bags. Single-use plastic shopping bags, commonly made from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic, have traditionally been given for free to customers by stores when purchasing goods: the bags have long been considered a convenient, cheap, and hygienic way of transporting items. Problems associated with plastic bags include use of non-renewable resources (such as crude oil, gas and coal), difficulties during disposal, and environmental impacts. Concurrently with the reduction in lightweight plastic bags, shops have introduced reusable shopping bags.

  • Στις αρχές του 21ου αιώνα, σημειώθηκε παγκόσμια κίνηση προς τη σταδιακή απόσυρση των πλαστικών σακουλών. Οι πλαστικές σακούλες αγορών μίας χρήσης, συνήθως κατασκευασμένες από πλαστικό (LDPE), παραδοσιακά δίνονταν δωρεάν στους πελάτες από τα καταστήματα αγοράς των αγαθών. Οι τσάντες αυτές θεωρούνταν από καιρό ένας βολικός, φθηνός και υγιεινός τρόπος μεταφοράς των αντικειμένων. Τα προβλήματα όμως που σχετίζονταν με τις πλαστικές σακούλες είναι ότι ήταν κατασκευασμένες από μη ανανεώσιμες πρώτες ύλες (όπως αργό πετρέλαιο, φυσικό αέριο και άνθρακα), δημιουργούσαν δυσκολίες κατά τη διάθεση και περιβαλλοντικές επιπτώσεις. Ταυτόχρονα με τη μείωση των ελαφρών πλαστικών σακουλών, τα καταστήματα παρουσίασαν τσάντες αγορών πολλαπλών χρήσεων. (el)
  • Desde principios del siglo XXI ha aparecido un movimiento mundial por la eliminación de las bolsas de plástico ligeras.​​ Las bolsas de plástico de un solo uso, normalmente fabricadas con plástico de polietileno de baja densidad (LDPE),​ han sido entregadas tradicionalmente de forma gratuita a los clientes por las tiendas al comprar productos: las bolsas se han considerado durante mucho tiempo una forma cómoda, barata e higiénica de transportar artículos. Los problemas asociados a las bolsas de plástico incluyen el uso de recursos no renovables (como el petróleo, el gas y el carbón),​ las dificultades durante su eliminación y el impacto medioambiental. Paralelamente a la reducción de las bolsas de plástico ligeras, los comercios han introducido bolsas de la compra reutilizables. (es)
