The sign of green food consists of three parts: the sun above, the leaves and buds below. The logo graphic is a right circle, indicating protection and safety. The whole character depicts a harmonious vitality in the bright sunshine, telling people that green food is a safe and pollution-free food from a pure and good ecological environment, which can bring strong vitality to people. Green food signs also remind people to protect the environment and prevent pollution, and create new natural harmony by improving the relationship between people and the environment.
The concept of green food:
Green food does not mean "green" food, but refers to pollution-free safe, high-quality and nutritious food. Natural resources and ecological environment are the basic conditions for grain production. Because things related to life, resources and environment are usually labeled as "green", in order to highlight that these foods come from a good ecological environment and can bring great vitality to people, they are named "green food".
Green food must meet the following conditions:
1, the origin of products or raw materials must meet the eco-environmental quality standards of green food.
2, crop planting, livestock and poultry breeding, aquaculture and food processing must comply with the operating rules of green food production;
3, the product must meet the quality and hygiene standards of green food;
4. The outer packaging of products must conform to the national general food labeling standards and the specific packaging, decoration and labeling regulations of green food.
Strictly speaking, green food is a kind of pollution-free, safe, high-quality and nutritious food that follows the principle of sustainable development, is produced according to a specific mode of production, and is approved by specialized agencies to use the green food logo trademark.
The development of green food starts with protecting and improving the ecological environment, takes the development of pollution-free food as a breakthrough, closely combines environmental protection, economic development and improving people's health level, and promotes a virtuous circle of environmental, resource, economic and social development.
The specific production mode of green food refers to the production and processing according to standards; Implement the whole process quality control of products; Implement mark management for products according to law.
Pollution-free, safe, high-quality and nutritious are the characteristics of green food. Pollution-free means to prevent pesticide residues, radioactive substances, heavy metals and harmful bacteria from polluting all aspects of food production and ensure the cleanliness of green food products through strict monitoring and control during the production and processing of green food. The high quality characteristics of green food include not only the high level of external packaging, but also the high level of internal quality; The internal quality of products includes two aspects: one is excellent internal quality, and the other is high nutritional value and health and safety indicators.
In order to ensure that green food products are pollution-free, safe, high-quality and nutritious, there is a relatively complete quality standard system for developing green food. Green food standards include environmental quality standards of origin, production technology standards, product quality and hygiene standards, packaging standards, storage and transportation standards and other related standards, which constitute a complete quality control standard system of green food.
The characteristics of green food:
Compared with ordinary food, green food has three remarkable characteristics:
(1) emphasizes that products come from the best ecological environment. The production of green food starts with the ecological environment of the raw material producing area, and through strict monitoring of the ecological environment factors of the raw material producing area and its surroundings, it is judged whether it has the basic conditions for producing green food.
(2) The whole process of product quality control. Green food production is subject to quality control from the land to the dining table. Through prenatal environmental monitoring and raw material testing; The implementation of specific production and processing procedures in the intermediate stage and the control of product quality, hygiene index, packaging, preservation, transportation, storage and sales in the postpartum stage ensure the overall product quality of green food and improve the technical content of the whole production process.
(3) Managing product marks according to law. The means of green food label management include technical means and legal means. Technical means refers to the certification of the origin environment, production technology and product quality of green food according to the green food standard system, and only enterprises and products that meet the green food standard can use the green food logo trademark. Legal means refers to the implementation of trademark management for enterprises and products that use green food marks. The logo trademark of green food has been registered by China Green Food Development Center in the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and the exclusive right is protected by the Trademark Law of People's Republic of China (PRC).
Green ten ring sign
First of all, the implementation of environmental labeling is the supplement and perfection of modern environmental management under the condition of market economy.
Environmental problems are produced in the process of economic development and can only be solved in the process of economic development. In the process of exploring the coordinated development of economy and environment, people gradually realize from practice that it is not enough to control pollution only at the end, but to prevent it from the whole production process and let the general public participate in environmental protection. It is based on this understanding that environmental labels are produced.
Under the condition of socialist market economy, every consumer is influencing the development of enterprises and making contributions to environmental protection with the goods he chooses. Every entrepreneur also studies how to break through trade barriers and improve product competitiveness according to environmental requirements. Drawing on the experience of foreign countries in awarding environmental labels to environmentally friendly products, the State Environmental Protection Administration actively advocated and organized the establishment of the environmental labeling system in China.
Environmental label is the certification trademark of a product, which shows that the product is not only qualified in quality, but also meets the requirements of environmental protection in the process of production, use, treatment and disposal. Compared with similar products, it has the advantages of low toxicity, less harm and resource saving. Through consumers' choice and market competition, we will guide enterprises to consciously adjust their industrial structure, adopt clean technology, produce products that are beneficial to the environment, form scale effect of improving environmental quality, and finally realize the goal of coordinated development of environmental protection and economy.
Some foreign environmental protection signs are called eco-labels, blue angels, environmental protection choices and so on. The international organization for standardization calls it an environmental label. It originated in Europe in the late 1970s. 1978, Germany first implemented environmental labels, and so far they have issued environmental labels to more than 4,000 products in more than 100 categories. At present, more than 30 countries and regions in the world, such as Europe, the United States, Canadian, Japanese and China Taiwan Province Province, have implemented environmental labels, which have become a powerful tool to prevent trade barriers and promote public participation worldwide.
Two, China environmental label is the authoritative certification of green products.
1994 May 17, China Environmental Label Product Certification Committee was established. It is the highest-level certification committee in China, consisting of representatives from ministries and commissions such as the State Environmental Protection Administration and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine 1 1 and well-known experts. Its permanent organization, the Secretariat of Certification Committee, is the only organization recognized by the Accreditation Committee of National Product Certification Institutions, which carries out authoritative certification on behalf of the country and grants environmental labels to products.
China environmental label product certification is issued by the State Environmental Protection Administration with technical requirements for environmental label products, on-site inspection by technical experts, product testing by authoritative testing institutions in the industry, and final comprehensive evaluation by technical committee. Strict certification procedures, in line with international standards.
China environmental label requires certification enterprises to establish a guarantee system integrating ISO9000, ISO 14000 and product certification. At the same time, a strict annual inspection system is implemented for certified enterprises to ensure that certified products continue to meet standards, protect consumers' interests, and safeguard the authority and impartiality of environmental label certification.
On the basis of popularizing ISO 14000 international environmental management standard, China Environmental Label integrates the theory and method of life cycle assessment, modern environmental management consciousness and clean production technology into product environmental label certification, promotes the development of environment-friendly products, adheres to the modern concept of people-oriented, and develops eco-industry and circular economy.
Third, China environmental labels promote sustainable consumption.
Fulfill international treaties and protect the ozone layer. China Environmental Label In order to promote the implementation of the Montreal Protocol, the concept of "ozone layer protection and refrigeration" has been vigorously promoted. Household refrigeration equipment produced by 28 enterprises has passed the certification one after another, and these 28 enterprises show their labels to the public for the first time.
Actively cooperate with the national "three rivers and three lakes" governance and publicize the view that "the use value of washing powder should be combined with the environmental benefits of washing powder". Phosphorus-free washing powder produced by more than 20 washing powder enterprises has won the environmental protection mark, which has provided many technical reserves and many substitute products for the country to implement phosphorus prohibition measures in Taihu Lake and other waters.
On the problem of controlling white pollution, aiming at the white pollution caused by disposable goods such as plastics, the environmental label puts forward a comprehensive control viewpoint of "using less, recycling a little, replacing a little and degrading a little", absorbs certified environmental labels of various products such as plant fiber products, paper products and degradable materials, and implements the strategy of controlling white pollution mainly by recycling.
Technical requirements of China environmental label for certified products such as ecological textiles and computers. Among them, eco-textiles adopt the most authoritative international OKO-TEX 100 standard, and the most stringent international Too99 standard and European flower standard are transformed by computer, which lays the foundation for international mutual recognition of environmental labels.
In order to reduce the pollution of decoration materials to the living environment, China Environmental Label has successively formulated and revised the requirements of 1 1 water-based paint, building ceramics, furniture, etc., which has played a positive role in promoting the greening process of industrial products, laid a technical foundation for the death of ten national mandatory standards in 2002, and defined the evaluation criteria for the low-limit access of national mandatory standards and the high-limit recommendation of environmental label standards for environmental protection building materials in the market.
Four, China's environmental protection signs keep pace with the times and have unlimited prospects.
In 2003, the State Environmental Protection Administration integrated environmental certification resources, and the Secretariat of China Environmental Label Product Certification Committee, Environmental Certification Committee, Environmental Annotation Committee and Environmental Management System Certification Center of china environmental science Research Institute established the Central Joint Certification Center (SEPA Environmental Certification Center), forming a new certification platform based on life cycle assessment and focusing on systems and products. The leaders of the State Environmental Protection Administration require that environmental certification should serve national environmental management, eliminate trade barriers, ensure national environmental security, build a well-off society and improve people's quality of life.
China environmental label always implements the people-oriented principle, and ensures the authority and fairness of environmental label certification with strict certification standards, perfect guarantee system and strict certification and inspection procedures; Vigorously develop new product certification categories that protect human health, promote foreign trade and protect environmental quality, expand influence, and guide more enterprises to participate in environmental labels and more consumers to choose environmental labels; Standardize and improve China's environmental labeling with international environmental labeling standards, speed up mutual recognition of international environmental labeling certification bodies, break down green trade barriers, and promote the export of Chinese products to earn foreign exchange.
After nine years of China's environmental labeling, ten ring's environmental labeling has become a recognized authoritative certification mark for green products, forming an environmental labeling product group with an output value of 60 billion yuan, which has made outstanding contributions to improving China people's environmental awareness and promoting sustainable consumption. After China's entry into WTO, green barriers will become a new problem in China's foreign trade, and environmental labeling will surely become an important means to improve the competitiveness of China's products and enter the international market. "Actively promote internationally accepted environmental management system certification and environmental label product certification, and promote the development of foreign trade." President Jiang Zemin's speech in 2002 pointed out the direction for the development of environmental labeling. China's environmental signs keep pace with the times, with unlimited development and unlimited prospects. ,
China Environmental Mark-ten ring Type I Mark
[ISO 14024- 1999] is a sign based on multiple standards, which is established by a third party according to the product life cycle evaluation system. Certified by the Certification Center of the State Environmental Protection Administration, it is the most authoritative green sign at present, and can accept and certify 57 kinds of products. Now it has cooperated with European environmental protection agencies, which may form an international symbol; Up to now, more than 2,000 enterprises have obtained the logo at a cost of more than 22,000 yuan; Certification takes about 60 days.
It is an official product certification trademark. The central structure of the figure represents the environment on which human beings depend, and the peripheral ten ring is closely combined and connected, which shows that public participation in * * * is the same as protecting the environment; At the same time, the word "ring" between ten ring and the environment means "the whole people unite to protect the environment on which human beings depend", so it is called "ten ring symbol"; The products approved to use the mark are not only qualified in quality, but also meet the specific environmental protection requirements in the process of production, use and treatment. Compared with similar products, it has the advantages of low toxicity, less harm and resource saving.
