While in India I noticed an interesting trend throughout the country. They had declared “No Plastic Zones” in various places. Almost all tourist-type attraction was one, and then I noticed some beaches in Goa. It seemed a lot of government-owned property was zoned this way.

I’m not really sure of their motivation, whether it’s to keep the area clear of some non-biodegradable items or to try to lessen to use of plastic in general which would mean less oil consumption. Either way I thought it was an interesting idea.

It also looks like Delhi declared all public school plastic free zones

Give this a read: On no, no plastic. You can even try to play the game.
