National Parks would reduce or stop selling disposable plastic items like water bottles and food containers.
This bill would require the National Park Service to create a program to cut down on disposable plastic products in all national parks. Park managers would decide how much to reduce or eliminate these items, while also teaching visitors about the changes. This means visitors might need to bring their own reusable bottles and bags when visiting parks.
Today, there's no required program for National Parks to reduce disposable plastic products, though some parks might do so voluntarily. If this bill becomes law, the National Park Service would be required to create a system-wide program to reduce or eliminate the sale of disposable plastic items like water bottles and food containers in all parks, depending on what is feasible for each park.
