However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. Although plastic is very convenient, it is also difficult to degrade, which brings great harm and pollution to the environment where human beings live. We can see colorful plastic bags and various mineral water bottles floating on some rivers. In fact, in the city, this is still controllable. Generally, the Ministry of Environmental Protection will hire someone to salvage it, but this will treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. Marine pollution is becoming more and more serious. Due to wrong discharge, a lot of garbage has flowed into our ocean. These plastic wastes have seriously affected the life of marine life.
Every year, rescuers find many dolphins and sea lions tied in plastic bags, or disposable straws in the nasal cavity of turtles. Many marine creatures have traces of plastic in their bodies. Although plastic facilitates our life, it also hurts other residents on the earth and destroys our beautiful planet. In order to curb this phenomenon, the government issued the latest plastic restriction order in 2020, stipulating that shops should use paper bags instead of plastic bags, vegetable markets are prohibited from using them, and restaurants no longer use disposable tableware. Cities above the county level and famous scenic spots will become the vanguard of this policy.
The promulgation and listing of plastic restrictions can alleviate the crisis brought by plastics to human beings to some extent, but the key is to change people's consciousness. For example, when going out to buy food and shopping, try to bring your own environmental protection bag and put plastic garbage at a fixed point to realize garbage sorting. Everyone should have a sense of protecting the environment, which is the most important thing.
