Bye Bye Plastic Bags

As of June 23, 2019, Bali became the first Indonesian province to officially ban all single-use plastic bags, straws and polystyrene in a move environmental activists hope will have a domino effect across the country.

Almost one month into a ban on single use plastic bags, Styrofoam and plastic straws and Bali isn't showing any signs of having a relapse.

Local newswires are reporting plans are in the making from both central and local governments to charge domestic and international tourists visiting Indonesia a waste management levy in 2019.

A number of eco-friendly initiatives are being given the green light by Governor Koster, which could be signaling a new era for Bali's future.

CCAI and "One Island One Voice" coordinate 8 districts, 100 collection points and more than 25,000 people to help keep Bali's beaches clean.
