Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) has officially banned the sale of single-use plastic water bottles as part of its efforts to reduce waste and become net zero by 2045.

To support this transition, LAX has installed 60 new hydration stations throughout its terminals, encouraging passengers to bring reusable water bottles and help reduce plastic waste.
