A Roadmap to Strengthen the Management of Single-Use and Disposable Plastics
This Roadmap seeks to reduce the negative environmental and socio-economic impacts of single-use and disposable plastics by listing priority items to consider for elimination, including select film and flexible packaging used in food and produce sectors, and specific packaging forms such as woven and net produce bags.

And that shortsighted elimination policies will not solve the problem and, in many cases, will result in more environmental harm.
