I’ve heard that some U.S. states have enacted a ban on single-use plastic bags at retail and grocery stores. Can you summarize the main points made in this article? Keep it to three sentences and include the states that have imposed this ban.

Article:
What is the Plastic Bag Ban?

As the name states, these bans are bans on single-use plastic bags. Many states around the nation are beginning their bans on plastic bags. These bans will ban all single-use plastic bags, such as the ones that are popularly used at grocery stores and in restaurants for take-out orders.

With these bans in effect, single-use plastic bags will not be accessible for purchase to both shoppers and business owners. As a result, paper bags and reusable cloth bags can be used as an alternative.
	 
Why Should Plastic Bags be Banned?

It’s a fair question. According to different state regulators there are multiple reasons some states are deciding to put these bans in effect, including:

The amount of time it takes plastic bags to decompose
Did you know it can take up to 1,000 years for a plastic bag to decompose?
The damage it can do to our food sources
As plastic breaks down, it makes its way into our water systems—where fish and other sea life consume it, contaminating our food sources with micro-plastics.
The difficulty of recycling them
Plastic bags are very difficult to recycle; and according to the EPA, around 93 billion plastic bags don’t get recycled each year. In 2018, less than 9% of all used plastics were recycled.
The pollution they create, both in the making of plastic bags and in their use
Single-use plastic bags are statistically one of the world’s leading pollutant. A total of 300 million tons of toxic plastic waste is produced every year just in the creation of plastic bags.
Many states across the US are looking to ban plastic bags in an attempt to minimize any future pollution that could be created as a result of plastic bag creation and use.
