End plastic pollution, the world begins the countdown!
 

It is reported that on March 2, 2022, local time, a resolution on plastic pollution control was passed at the resumed fifth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA-5.
2) held in Nairobi.
A draft legally binding global agreement will be finalized
.

 

"The world is ready to change the relationship between people and plastic", Marco Lambertini, director general of WWF, is also what we want to say
.
At a time when plastic pollution is directly related to soil health, marine ecosystems, and even food safety, China is also going all out to combat "white pollution"
.

 

At the 2022 National Two Sessions, which are scheduled to arrive, a number of representatives expressed relevant views
.
For example, Li Jinghong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, suggested that chemical recycling should be regarded as an important part of an environmentally friendly emerging industry and the national plastic recycling economy; Ma Yongsheng, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, suggested establishing industries with users of plastic products such as express delivery, takeaway, cosmetics, food, home appliances, and automobiles.
Supply and demand alliance, form a complete industrial chain, and standardize the chemical recycling market of waste plastics; Ma Guoxiang, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference: It is recommended to continuously improve the nationwide industry standard system for fully biodegradable materials, implement the pilot implementation method, and support the promotion and application of fully biodegradable materials.

　　Why is plastic pollution so compelling? According to public data from the United Nations Environment Programme, global plastic production has soared from one million tons to 100 million tons in more than 60 years, and the production capacity may double by 2040
.
As far as the industry is concerned, it is predicted that by 2030, the greenhouse gas generated by it will exceed that of coal-fired power plants, and this has not yet involved the environmental risks caused by the disposal of plastic waste, and the problem of microplastic pollution in rivers, lakes and seas
.

 

　　Yes, where did the massive plastic go? How is it disposed of after disposal? This issue has attracted widespread attention
.
From the plastic restriction order to the plastic ban order, China has gone through round after round of exploration, from norms and standards to supervision and law enforcement, all are tightening
.
At the regular press conference in February, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment clearly responded that China has always attached great importance to plastic pollution control, and is an early country in the world.
Outstanding achievements have been made in this regard
.

 

　　In the future, China will promote the implementation of the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Control of Plastic Pollution" and the "14th Five-Year Plan" Action Plan for the Control of Plastic Pollution
.
Of course, encouraging and supporting relevant enterprises to improve the whole life cycle management of plastic products is also a top priority.
Speaking of which, it is a proposition of a nature such as household appliance recycling and power battery recycling, but the recycling value of plastic waste is generally low
.

 

　　This also involves how in recent years, the industry problems about low-value recyclables have been solved
.
At present, the recovery of low-value recyclables mainly relies on ① the promotion of the intelligent recycling model; ② the upgrade of the "two networks integration" system
.

 

　　①The existence of smart garbage sorting and recycling bins provides a more convenient and feasible solution for the recycling of many recyclables.
With green points, intelligent weighing, and vertical subdivision, the recycling of low-value recyclables remains unchanged and the enthusiasm for recycling is not high.
higher problems
.
Some areas have also specially introduced professional equipment for this purpose, such as Meihua Street in Zhuhai, the introduction of foam cold presses and multi-functional balers , and the establishment of recyclables in the community to facilitate the delivery and sale of recyclables to help scrap metal, waste fabric, waste paper, waste Recycling of 5 categories of wastes including plastics and low-value waste
.

 

　　②The "integration of the two networks" is also the ultimate answer to overcoming the decentralization of the industrial chain of renewable waste collection, transportation and storage, especially for low-value recyclables
.
Taking Jiangsu Longtan Street as an example, mobilize mass publicity, publicize the price of recyclables, guide the construction and management standards of recyclables service points, and make joint efforts in acceptance, registration, transshipment, supervision and other aspects to implement recycling personnel information, recycling The "five disclosure" system of price, recycling type, convenient service hotline and supervision telephone has formed a good demonstration role
.

 

　　End plastic pollution, the world begins the countdown!
