Shanghai issued a Sept. 29? Plastic Restriction Order?


Shanghai is about to ban non-biodegradable single-use plastic straws in the food service industry. The introduction of this policy in Shanghai can effectively control plastic pollution and better achieve the city's substantial reduction in the use of disposable plastic products. This has a better positive effect on plastic pollution control, Shanghai as a first-tier city, the population density is very large, Shanghai to implement the plastic limit, but also very good for other cities to play a leading role. This government-led policy to prevent further expansion of plastic pollution will allow for better citizen participation and cooperation.

Shanghai's program to strengthen plastic pollution control issued by the city specifies targets to be met for each time period, including a clear ban on single-use plastic items. Plastic is a very difficult natural decomposition of the object, and people live in the most commonly used is the disposable plastic supplies, whether it is to buy food or shopping, often can accumulate a lot of disposable plastic supplies. As people throw away these plastic products, it increases the pollution to the environment. The so-called white pollution refers to the pollution of the environment caused by the accumulation of these difficult to degrade plastic bags.

Shanghai's ban on non-biodegradable disposable plastic straws and other disposable plastic tableware is a good approach to combating plastic pollution. The introduction of this policy will enable more citizens to start reducing the use of disposable plastic items, which in turn will reduce the amount of plastic pollution each year. If you want the public to cooperate with the government to implement the reduction of disposable plastic products, you can not do without a clear legal system provisions, very often, people need to have a mandatory monitoring system, can help people to better implement the new regulations. Reducing the use of single-use plastic products can effectively control plastic pollution; at the same time, when people gradually reduce the use of single-use plastic products, more people will start to use alternative products, in the long run, the use of plastic products will be greatly reduced, the alternative products have been promoted.

The Earth's environment is deteriorating, and protecting it is something we should all do. Every year, the environmental pollution caused by plastic is very serious, the implementation of the Shanghai plastic limit can play an effective control of plastic environmental pollution deterioration, I believe that with the implementation of the policy, the annual plastic waste produced in Shanghai can be greatly reduced, which is also very conducive to the governance of the environment.
