Global issues, which are among the most serious issues of our
times, threaten the existence of humanity and the world. The most basic
concept encountered regarding the aforementioned issues is the concept
of sustainability. This matter becomes even more important especially
when the use of plastic bags is considered. This study, which summarizes
the most recent state of sustainable development, focused on
environmental sustainability and plastic bag consumption and evaluated
the negative effects of plastic bag use on the environment and health. In
this context, the effects of the taxation regulations and pricing policies
implemented against plastic bag use for the sake of creating a sustainable
environment were analyzed.
