Grocery stores across California will have to make this small change by 2025.
“Now that the governor has signed SB 1046, the grocery community is focused on preparing to comply with the new law by 2025,” Nate Rose, senior director of communications for the California Grocers Association, told SFGATE in an email. “There are many moving pieces to navigate, mostly concerning how to source and scale compostable and recyclable pre-checkout bags for our shoppers in a supply chain environment that has not been without its challenges in the past few years.
Six years ago, voters approved Proposition 67, which banned plastic bags from checkout lines at grocery stores. Now, plastic bags will no longer be seen at any grocery store in California by the start of 2025. According to the Mercury News, the number of plastic bags picked up at California beaches during the state’s annual Coast Clean Up day dropped by 61% from 65,736 to 25,768 by 2019.
