The Spanish government proposed a draft legislation on June 2 to ban the use of some single-use plastic products and tax single-use plastic packaging

Agence France-Presse reported that the draft was specifically proposed for the fast food and takeaway industries

Teresa Rivera, Spain's environment minister, said the special tax on plastic packaging is an "indirect tax" that will be levied on the production, import and procurement of single-use plastic packaging from EU member states

The tax rate of 0.
45 euros (about 3.
6 yuan) per kilogram is expected to bring Spain 724 million euros (5.
8 billion yuan) in tax revenue each year

Rivera cited Madrid's 80,000-seat Santiago Bernabée Stadium as an example, saying Spain alone could fill 45 of those stadiums with plastic packaging waste from households
