Ban plastic, plastic limit this "war" is imminent

Ban plastic, plastic limit this "war" is imminent

Double Eleven has passed, I don't know if you have noticed that plastic bubble bags are much less, instead of small cartons, paper bags, hard plastic turnover boxes. The plastic ban has crept up on you. Perhaps many people will ask: why ban plastic, in order to save wood to advocate the use of plastic? So why is plastic now banned?

Let's take a look at this data set

The world consumes an average of 1 million plastic bags every minute

The world consumes 400 million tons of plastic each year

China's consumption exceeded 60 million tons

Only 14% of the world's plastic packaging is currently recycled

Only 10 percent are effectively recycled

About 8 million tons of plastic waste enters the ocean each year

All of them add up to 420 times around the earth

Just how scary plastic waste is

More than 100,000 Marine animals die each year because they get entangled in plastic bags or accidentally eat them

Their living space is invaded by plastic waste

Food is filled with plastic waste

These plastic bags thrown into the ocean take 200 to 1,000 years to degrade

Plastic landfill occupies a large amount of land, and the soil of the occupied land is polluted, which can not be restored for a long time

Let's see:

A turtle twisted by a plastic hoop

A crane trapped in a plastic trash bag

Sea animals that live in the garbage

An animal that accidentally starved to death in a plastic casing

Why is there so much plastic waste?

Plastic is an important base material,

It is widely used in our social production and residents' life

Consumers don't care about spending two or three cents more

Plastic bags, cheap and convenient

"Alternatives" are less attractive

Plastic bags can also hold garbage after goods

But do you know where the plastic you throw away ends up?

About 8 million tons of plastic waste are dumped into the ocean every year

More than 80,000 tons of plastic, mainly bottles and bags, are floating in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, scientists reported in the British journal Scientific Reports. The "plastic monster" covers an area of nearly 1.6 million square kilometers.

You can't imagine

Before the "plastic limit" was issued in 2008

Chinese people use 1 billion plastic bags to buy food every day

More than two billion other kinds of plastic bags a day

That's at least two bags per person per day

And after the plastic restriction,

By 2016, according to the statistics of relevant departments

Supermarkets and shopping malls charge for use and so on

The use of plastic bags has been reduced by two thirds

A total of 1.4 million tons of plastic shopping bags have been reduced

Equivalent to a reduction of nearly 30 million tons of carbon dioxide

How to reduce plastic waste to protect the environment let us start from these small things

: We no longer use plastic bags when we send things

Don't use plastic when wrapping fragile items

Switch to paper honeycomb paper and bubble paper

Replace the gray and black plastic delivery bags with paper ones

◆ Prepare several reusable shopping bags, each containing several paper bags. Whenever you go shopping, take one with you to give yourself a good habit and reduce your dependence on plastic bags.

◆ Limit bottled water consumption, preferably with a reusable water bottle. Data show that more than 1 million bottles of drinking water are sold every minute worldwide. Bottled water is one of the main sources of plastic waste.

◆ Ditch disposable coffee cups and buy a nice, functional thermos. Most disposable coffee cups have plastic LIDS.

◆ Avoid chewing gum, which is plastic and certainly not recyclable.

◆ Avoid using washing products containing plastic beads. Plastic microbeads are solid plastic particles with a diameter of less than 5 mm. They are widely used in toothpaste, facial cleanser, shower gel and other products. Microbeads pollute the environment and damage Marine life.

◆ No disposable razor.

◆ Use sealed cans and crisper containers to preserve food, and avoid plastic bags.

Don't use plastic straws. If necessary, choose paper straws or edible straws made from seaweed.

Many years ago, the national leader once said that let some people get rich first, now the rich Chinese should not respond to the country's ban on plastic, to protect the environment to do a due responsibility for our children and grandchildren to leave a beautiful home!
