Plastic bag ban

If you take a look around the city, at any given time, at any given day, you'll likely see someone carrying a plastic bag, or finding a creative way to use one. But Mayor Bill de Blasio wants this to be a thing of the past. De Blasio has tried in the past to encourage New Yorkers to wean off plastic bags.
