Walmart plans cut back on plastic
December 7, 2022
One of the biggest trend on the rise has been the end of plastic bags within major companies. Finally, Walmart has decided to jump on that bandwagon. In the beginning of 2023, our local Walmart plans to convert from plastic bags to reusable because they are better for the environment and they are sturdy. This change will result in (hopefully) zero waste.
By 2025, Walmart plans to be 100% reusable and not give anymore plastic bags. The process is starting mainly on the East Coast in the beginning of 2023. This change is also a result of the ban in California that will eliminate the usage of plastic bags all together. The government is going to ban the creation and importation of plastic bags but the process is going to take a few years.
Before the prices rise, try to buy some reusable bags for under a dollar at your local stores.
