In Navarre you can no longer sell single-use plastic cutlery

  • The Foral Waste Law prevents the sale of single-use plastic products in Navarre from 3 July. In fact, the EU directive has entered into force throughout Europe, but the states have not transposed it: The Government of Navarre is a pioneer in this respect and has taken this Directive into account in its Foral Law. Ecologist group Eguzki has stated that: "We consider the decision of the Government of Navarre to be plausible in the face of this serious problem, an important, courageous and long-awaited step, as it has taken account of the European Union Directive on this issue of 2019. The other administrations should follow the Navarro model. What do you expect? ".

Single use plastic products are cutlery and plates, straws, cotton sticks, beverage whiskers, balloon sticks, expanded polystyrene containers for food or beverages and single-dose and non-recyclable capsules. The Foral Law of the Government of Navarra prohibits the sale of the same since 3 July.

Ecologist Eguzki warned that 43% of the waste that pollutes the seas is single-use products and that the next step should be: "The next step and challenge should be to ban the production of this contagious format, which not only has negative effects on the sea, but also on people's health."
