The law provides a model for how the U.S. can take on plastic waste.<\/p>\n<p>One such policy is eliminating non-recyclable plastic branding stickers for fruits and vegetables, which remain widespread in the U.S. Instead, since January 2022, France has required produce labels to be made of a \u201ccompostable material\u201d like paper. Beyond the produce department, tea bags can no longer be plastic, which will cut down on waste and protect consumers from drinking microplastics.<\/p>\n<p>The law also tackles plastic waste in restaurants, coffee shops, bars and other public eating establishments. Restaurants with a capacity of at least 20 customers must provide reusable tableware, including bowls, plates, cups and utensils, to those dining in. Restaurants must also inform customers that drinking water is free, so diners should rely less on purchasing bottled water for a casual meal. Finally, kids\u2019 menus can no longer come with plastic toys, which are rarely recyclable and often end up in landfills.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pirg.org\/articles\/how-frances-anti-waste-law-targets-plastic-waste-at-its-source\/\">Pirg<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-406\/\">How France\u2019s Anti-waste Law targets plastic waste at its source<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[11645,575,561,434],"class_list":["post-117260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-anti-waste","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-france","tag-legislation"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117260"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117260\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
