Abu Dhabi: How shoppers are embracing the ban on single-use plastics
With less than six weeks left until the ban on single-use plastics is implemented in Abu Dhabi, some shoppers have already embraced the change.
Many say they will bring their own reusable bags whenever they go shopping to support the government policy of protecting the environment. Major retailers and pharmacies, too, have stepped up measures in preparation of the new policy. They have promised to provide customers with reusable and environment-friendly bags as alternatives to plastics.
