Compose a 1250 words essay on Why People Should Pay for Plastic Bags. Needs to be plagiarism free!

This essay stresses that a number of countries all over the world has already banned the use of plastic bags or provided that people should pay for them in stores. Among these countries are Australia, the United Kingdom, China, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Denmark, India, Israel, Malaysia, Hong Kong and others. In the United States, it is only cities and counties that outlawed the use of plastic bags. In September 2014, California imposed a ban on plastic bags. It is difficult to predict the outcomes of a plastic bag tax in the United States. However, the experience of other countries that implemented this tax or even banned the use of plastic bags is promising. For example, Ireland introduced a plastic bag tax in 2002, and since that year, the amount of plastic bag litter in the country gas reduced by ninety-five percent. In 2008, China introduced a total ban on ultra-thin plastic bags and a tax on plastic bags, and since that year, the use of plastic bags in the country has reduced, which means that the amount of plastic bags litter has also decreased.

This paper makes a conclusion that the modern state of the environment as well as the threats imposed by plastic bags on it and on public health suggest that the use of plastic bags should be limited, and one of the ways to decrease the use is to make people pay for plastic bags in stores. Experience of a range of countries in the world and cities and counties in the United States shows that a plastic bag fee really works and helps improve the situation with environmental pollution.
