New York to Ban Single-Use Toiletry Bottles from 2024
New York has passed a law making it illegal for hotels to give their guests single-use plastic toiletry bottles.
The new law will ban plastic toiletry bottles smaller than 355 milliliters. Most hotel toiletries come in very small amounts — usually between 30 milliliters and 60 milliliters — which means that hotels will have to find other ways of giving their guests personal cleaning products.
The law will come into effect on January 1, 2024, for bigger hotels, but smaller businesses with fewer than 50 rooms will have an extra year to prepare for the change. President of the New York State Hospitality & Tourism Association Mark Dorr, who helped write the law, has said that the delay will mean that hotels will have time to use all of the toiletries they still have, and give them time to get new alternatives ready.
Hotels will have to put dispensers in their guest rooms that can be refilled with things like soap and shampoo, or find other alternatives that are better for the environment than single-use bottles.
Eric Goldstein of America's Natural Resources Defense Council said that the new law will stop tens of millions of plastic bottles every year from being thrown away.
New York is not the first US state to ban single-use toiletry bottles, however. California passed a similar ban in 2019, although it will not come into effect until 2023.
Some large hotels like Marriott International have already started replacing their plastic toiletry bottles. Marriott has said that doing so at all of its hotels would stop about 500 million small bottles from being thrown away each year.
What are your thoughts on New York's new law?

뉴욕에서 호텔에서 나눠주는 일회용 어메니티 금지한다고 하네요
2024년 1월 부터 법시행될 거라 그전에 원래있던거 다 소진하고 대체방안 찾아야한다고 하네요
어떻게 될지 ... 제가 2년 6개월 뒤 뉴욕에 직접 방문해서 알아보겠습니다^^
아 그리고 재활용 관련해서 얘기하다, 필리핀은 재활용 안하다고 하던데여
선생님이 거지들이나 홈리스들이 그걸로 돈 번다고 만약 재활용하며 그사람들 잡 이 없어질거라고 그러더라고요
완전 컬쳐숔!!!!!
그럼 20000
