In China, “Opinions on Further Strengthening the Control of Plastic Pollution”which specified “Restricting plastic order”, countries and regions around the world are also actively restricting the use of single-use plastics. In 2015, 55 countries and regions imposed restrictions on the use of single-use plastics, and by 2022, this number has reached 123. In March 2022, at the Fifth United Nations Environment Assembly, has reached 175 countries and regions.
With the increasingly prominent ecological problems caused by the use of plastics, severe environmental pressure has aroused extensive attention of the international community, and the development of green and recyclable economy has gradually become a global consensus. One way to solve our own plastic pollution problem is to replace conventional plastic with degradable materials.
The biggest advantage of biodegradable plastics is that biodegradable plastics can be degraded by microorganisms in nature in a short period of time under certain conditions, and the substances produced by the degradation will not pollute the environment, while traditional plastics takes centuries to degrade. In addition, relatively less energy is required to manufacture biodegradable plastics, which means that less fuel is used for production, which helps reduce environmental pollution.
1. Educate yourself and others: Educate yourself and others about the damage that plastic waste is causing to the environment and why it needs to be reduced. Research ways that you and others can reduce plastic consumption and waste.
2. Make sustainable choices: Make conscious decisions to purchase and use items that are made from sustainable materials and that can be reused or recycled. Avoid single-use plastics and opt for reusable or biodegradable alternatives.
3. Advocate for change: Advocate for greater awareness of the issue and for government regulations to reduce plastic consumption. Support campaigns and initiatives that aim to reduce plastic waste.
4. Reduce waste: Take steps to reduce plastic waste in your own life. For example, opt for reusable shopping bags, avoid purchasing items with excess packaging, and recycle and compost whatever you can.
5. Create sustainable solutions: Create products and services that provide alternatives to plastic consumption. Research and develop sustainable products and services that are made from sustainable materials and that can be reused or recycled.
Disposable biodegradable plastic products mainly include express packaging, disposable tableware, disposable biodegradable shopping bags and other products (agricultural mulch, etc.). With rising environmental awareness, there has been an increasing demand for biodegradable plastic products in recent years.
