Small pacific island, Vanuatu, bans plastic bags and polystyrene

"A ban on non-biodegradable plastic bags and polystyrene takeaway boxes is to come into force in Vanuatu at the end of this month. The Council of Ministers agreed to stop single-use bags being imported and manufactured in the country after a study highlighted a large amount of plastic rubbish on the main island of Efate." - Excerpt from Radio New Zealand.
