The "2020-2024 China Biodegradable Plastics Industry In-depth Research and Investment Prospect Forecast Report" released by the China Investment Industry Research Institute shows that by the end of 2018, a total of 127 countries in the world have passed legislation to manage plastic bags, and 27 countries have targeted specific plastic products.
, material or production level bans, 27 countries impose taxes on the production and manufacture of plastic bags, 30 countries adopt paid use of plastic bags, and 63 countries have enacted Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) measures such as deposit refunds, Product recycling programs and guarantees for waste collection and recycling, 8 countries prohibit the use of microplastics through national laws or regulations
.
The Japanese government has decided to implement the provision of paid plastic bags from July 1, 2020, and all retail stores must charge for the provision of plastic bags;
The 75 member stores of the Thai Retailers Association will stop using plastic bags from January 1, 2020, hoping to reduce the use of 9 billion plastic bags each year, or reduce plastic bag waste by 20%
.
The implementation of plastic restriction has been responded to by many countries around the world.
In the future, with the increasingly serious plastic pollution and the advancement of global plastic restriction measures, more and more countries will join the pace of global plastic restriction, and plastic restriction activities will become a global phenomenon.
trend
.
On January 19, 2020, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment announced the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Control of Plastic Pollution", proposing to ban and restrict the production, sales and use of some plastic products in an orderly manner.
The use of plastics in various fields such as disposable plastic tableware, disposable plastic products for hotels and hotels, and express plastic packaging shall be clearly stipulated in stages, and it is proposed to actively promote alternative products, standardize the recycling of plastic waste, and establish and improve the production, circulation, and use of plastic products.
, recycling and disposal and other links of the management system
.
The new version of the plastic restriction order stipulates that in 2020, the production, sales and use of some plastic products should be banned and restricted in some regions and fields; in 2022, the consumption of disposable plastic products should be significantly reduced, alternative products will be promoted, and plastics will be discarded.
The proportion of material resources and energy utilization has been greatly increased.
In areas with prominent plastic pollution problems and emerging fields such as e-commerce, express delivery, and takeaway, a number of replicable and popularized plastic reduction and green logistics models have been formed; plastic products will be basically established in 2025.
The management system of production, circulation, consumption, recycling and disposal has basically formed a multi-level co-governance system, further improved the development and application level of alternative products, greatly reduced the amount of plastic waste landfill in key cities, and effectively controlled plastic pollution
