Black kites sit on a tree with plastic bags clinged to it after a storm near the Dudaim dump in Israel’s Negev desert near the Bedouin city Rahat on January 20, 2019. Israelis use approximately 2.7 billion plastic bags a year, which constitute 25 percent of the country’s trash volume. Since 2017 supermarkets charge a small price for the bags, following legislation aimed at diminishing their excessive use. (Photo by Menahem Kahana/AFP Photo)
