摘要
On December 07,2023, U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) and U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas) introduced bicameral legislation to phase out single-use plastic foam food service products, “loose fill” such as packing peanuts, and non-medical disposable coolers – materials reportedly known to cause adverse health effects and pollute waterways. © 2024 MA Business Ltd.
