New York City is cracking down on plastic bottles

纽约市禁止一次性塑料瓶的使用

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio signed an executive order yesterday banning the sale of single-use plastic beverage bottles on city-owned and -leased properties — which means the bottles could vanish from an area nearly equivalent to a quarter of the city. The move also bars city agencies from purchasing or selling beverages packaged in single-use plastic containers.

昨日，纽约市市长白思豪（Bill de Blasio）签署了一项行政命令，禁止在城市所有或租赁房产处出售一次性塑料饮料瓶——这意味着该市近四分之一的区域将不再出现塑料瓶。此举还禁止城市机构购买或出售一次性塑料容器包装的饮料。
