Impact of plastic bags on the environment is a burning topic across the globe, supported by initiatives to ban their use, which have been successful in some countries. Croatia is no exception, featuring different currents and opinions about their harmfulness and alternatives. Eco NGOs want to ban them completely, Society of Plastics and Rubber Engineers stresses their advantages, Ministry of Environmental Protection, Physical Planning and Construction introduced a fee for using them..., and the consumers are poorly informed and still inadequately educated.
