Although they are as pollution-free as possible, they still occupy tens of thousands of acres of land and have serious environmental pollution problems. Therefore, classified collection of garbage can reduce the quantity and equipment of garbage disposal, reduce the disposal cost and reduce the consumption of land resources, which has social, economic and ecological benefits. Different cities in China carry out different garbage disposal methods: Beijing carries out the pilot community of garbage sorting, Shanghai carries out the reward mechanism of recycling for gifts, Shenzhen defines the technical standards of sorting, and Hangzhou implements the garbage sorting registered in real-name registration system.
