Banning Plastic Shopping Bags: Raising Environmental Consciousness on National Level

Abstract

Cet article est centré sur les principes de la théorie de l'apprentissage social et a l'intention de démontrer l'utilisation de ces principes par le biais d'une proposition d'interdiction des sacs en plastique à usage unique. L'interdiction serait un effort de sensibilisation à l'environnement dans la société américaine. Cet article explore la littérature actuelle sur plusieurs sujets connexes : les dommages que les sacs en plastique causent à notre environnement ; la façon dont une interdiction de ces sacs pourrait améliorer la sensibilisation à l'environnement et, en tant que sous-produit, augmenter les efforts ; et la meilleure alternative à ces sacs à usage unique : les sacs en jute. En outre, ce document explore comment ces efforts pourraient se concrétiser grâce à l'utilisation d'incitations gouvernementales désignées pour les entreprises qui mettent en œuvre ces changements. Enfin, cet article explore les effets positifs possibles à long terme de cette mise en œuvre et les problèmes potentiels au sein de ces propositions.

Este documento se centra en los principios de la teoría del aprendizaje social y tiene la intención de demostrar el uso de estos principios a través de una propuesta de prohibición de las bolsas de plástico de un solo uso. La prohibición sería un esfuerzo para aumentar la conciencia ambiental en la sociedad estadounidense. Este documento explora la literatura actual en varios temas relacionados: el daño que las bolsas de plástico causan a nuestro medio ambiente; la forma en que la prohibición de estas bolsas podría mejorar la conciencia ambiental y, como subproducto, aumentar los esfuerzos; y la mejor alternativa a estas bolsas de un solo uso: las bolsas de yute. Además, este documento explora cómo estos esfuerzos podrían realizarse mediante el uso de incentivos gubernamentales designados para las corporaciones que implementan estos cambios. Por último, este documento explora los posibles efectos positivos a largo plazo de esta implementación y los posibles problemas dentro de estas propuestas.

This paper is centered around social learning theory principles and intends to demonstrate the use of these principles through a proposed ban of single-use plastic shopping bags. The ban would be an effort to raise environmental awareness in U.S. society. This paper explores the current literature across several connected topics: the harm that plastic shopping bags cause to our environment; the way in which a ban of these bags could improve environmental awareness, and as a by-product, raise efforts; and the best alternative to these single-use bags: jute bags. Furthermore, this paper explores how these efforts could become realized through the use of governmental incentives designated for corporations who implement these changes. Lastly, this paper explores possible positive long-term effects of this implementation and potential problems within these proposals.

تتمحور هذه الورقة حول مبادئ نظرية التعلم الاجتماعي وتهدف إلى إثبات استخدام هذه المبادئ من خلال حظر مقترح لأكياس التسوق البلاستيكية ذات الاستخدام الواحد. سيكون الحظر محاولة لرفع الوعي البيئي في المجتمع الأمريكي. تستكشف هذه الورقة الأدبيات الحالية عبر العديد من الموضوعات المترابطة: الضرر الذي تسببه أكياس التسوق البلاستيكية لبيئتنا ؛ الطريقة التي يمكن أن يؤدي بها حظر هذه الأكياس إلى تحسين الوعي البيئي، وكمنتج ثانوي، زيادة الجهود ؛ وأفضل بديل لهذه الأكياس ذات الاستخدام الواحد: أكياس الجوت. علاوة على ذلك، تستكشف هذه الورقة كيف يمكن تحقيق هذه الجهود من خلال استخدام الحوافز الحكومية المخصصة للشركات التي تنفذ هذه التغييرات. أخيرًا، تستكشف هذه الورقة الآثار الإيجابية المحتملة على المدى الطويل لهذا التنفيذ والمشاكل المحتملة في هذه المقترحات.
