Hong Kong holds its first No Plastic Bag Day on April 15 as part of city-wide efforts to go green.
More than 1,200 retailers have signed up to charge 7 US cents for each bag, instead of offering them for free as they usually do.
The one-day experiment may become a permanent measure in hong kong. It is a good example to be followed by all countries, especially the low lying countries vulnerable to sea level rises consequent to global warming.
