Environmentalists welcome plastic-to-paper transition in Aqaba bakeries
AMMAN — The Jordan Environment Union (JEU) on Sunday welcomed a campaign among bakeries in Aqaba which have shifted to paper bags instead of plastic bags.
The Deputy Commissioner of the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority, Hamzeh Al Hajj Hasan, announced the transition to paper bags in a recent statement.
The campaign aims to reduce the use of plastic bags, which pollute the environment, Hajj Hasan said.
