(Summary description)Because paper sticks are environmentally friendly and recyclable, even garbage disposal is more convenient, even if children carelessly bite it, it is not harmful, and plastic is not environmentally friendly and is not easily degraded. If children accidentally eat it, it will be harmful to health.

White pollution is a one-time refractory plastic packaging. For example, disposable foam fast cutlery and our commonly used plastic bags, etc. It is very polluting to the environment, it is difficult to decompose in the soil, it will cause the soil capacity to decline, and if it is burned, it will cause atmospheric pollution, so it is now advocated not to use It is best to bring your own tools when buying things to reduce its use.


1. The status quo and harm of "white pollution"
As a new type of material, plastic products have the advantages of light weight, waterproof, durable, mature production technology, and low cost. They are widely used all over the world and are increasing year by year. The growth rate of plastic packaging materials in the world market is higher than that of other packaging materials. The average annual growth rate of plastic packaging materials from 1990 to 1995 was 8.9%.
my country is one of the world's top ten producers and consumers of plastic products. In 1995, my country’s plastic output was 5.19 million tons, and Japan’s plastic output was nearly 6 million tons. The country’s total plastic consumption was about 11 million tons, including 2.11 million tons of plastic for packaging. Most of the plastics used for packaging are discarded in the environment in the form of waste films, plastic bags and foam plastic tableware. These waste plastic packaging materials are scattered on both sides of urban areas, scenic tourist areas, water bodies, and roads, which not only affect the landscape and cause "visual pollution", but also cause potential damage to the ecological environment because of their difficulty in degradation.


According to the survey, 3% of the municipal solid waste in Beijing is waste plastic packaging, totaling approximately 140,000 tons per year; 7% of the domestic solid waste in Shanghai is waste plastic packaging, totaling approximately 190,000 tons per year. Tianjin's waste plastic packaging also exceeds 100,000 tons per year. Each year, about 2.3 billion plastic bags are discarded in the environment in Beijing, about 220 million plastic disposable tableware, and 6.75 million square meters of waste agricultural film. People dubbed it "the suburbs of the city".

The main hazards of "white pollution" are "visual pollution" and "potential hazards":

1. "Visual pollution". Waste plastic packaging scattered around cities, tourist areas, water bodies and roads brings bad stimulation to people's vision, affects the overall beauty of cities and scenic spots, and destroys the city appearance and landscape, thus causing "visual pollution".

2. "Potential hazard". After the waste plastic packaging enters the environment, it is difficult to degrade, causing long-term and deep-level ecological and environmental problems. First, the waste plastic packaging is mixed in the soil, which affects the absorption of nutrients and moisture by the crops, which will lead to a reduction in crop production. Second, the waste plastic packaging discarded in land or water is swallowed by the animals as food, causing the animals to die (in the In zoos, pastoral areas, and oceans, this kind of situation is not uncommon); third, the waste plastic packaging mixed with domestic waste is difficult to handle: landfill treatment will occupy the land for a long time, and domestic waste mixed with plastic is not suitable for composting. The waste plastics sorted out are also difficult to recycle because they cannot guarantee the quality.

At present, people strongly reflect the problem of "visual pollution", and most people still lack awareness of the long-term and deep "potential harm" of waste plastic packaging.
