translated from Spanish: CDMX merchants will have 15 days to leave the bags before being fined

Businesses in Mexico City will have up to 15 days, counted from January 1, to stop using plastic bags before being sanctioned, the capital government reported.
Faced with the entry into force of the rule prohibiting the use of single-use plastic bags, the head of government, Claudia Sheinbaum, noted that while the measure must be followed since Wednesday, the aim of her administration “is to educate before you start sanctioning.”
Sheinbaum added that the CDMX Secretariat for the Environment conducts outreach and guidance activities in the capital’s businesses, which would still last 15 days “and after that sanctions” for businesses that do not respect it.

The intention of this strategy, according to the representative, is for the information to also reach informal trade and the measure to be respected.
Interviewed after the opening of the Center for Command and Control of the Supply Plant (C2-Ceda), she added that during these days the inspectors and verifiers of the Sedema CDMX “are not working to the fullest” until the information is properly disseminated.
“Most large self-service stores yesterday (Wednesday) have already started this process, maybe they’re smaller stores and that change is going to be driven, as always our goal is to educate before we start sanctioning,” he insisted.
