Shanghai’s market regulators have fined a local business for using single-use plastic straws in a first-of-its-kind punishment, as the country seeks to eliminate plastic pollution.

The unnamed bakery in the city’s Minhang District was fined 10,000 yuan ($1,560) after being caught providing non-biodegradable, disposable plastic straws to customers, even though the city has banned their use, the Shanghai Municipal Administration for Market Regulation said Thursday. Local inspectors discovered the shop was using the straws — made from non-biodegradable polypropylene — during an unannounced inspection.

...China is the world’s largest plastic producer and consumer. However, improperly disposed plastic waste has polluted the country’s water bodies, with such materials accounting for over 92% of the trash found at the bottom of the oceans claimed by China.
