Garbage is divided into harmful waste, recyclable garbage, kitchen waste and other garbage, corresponding to red, blue, green and yellow trash cans respectively.
In Chinese mainland, more than 90% of the available garbage is buried or burned. For example, there are more than 654.38+500 million tons of construction waste every year, and only a few thousand tons are recycled, and the premise of maximizing utilization is garbage classification.
However, since 2000, Hangzhou has been a pilot city for garbage sorting, and then it has disappeared. On March 25th, 20 10, the trial of garbage classification was started again, and the garbage was divided into harmful waste, recyclable garbage, kitchen garbage and other garbage, corresponding to red, blue, green and yellow trash cans respectively, and degradable kitchen garbage bags were provided free of charge.
Garbage classification has covered 98% of the living quarters in Hangzhou, and 930,000 tons of garbage enter the recycling channel every year.
Japanese garbage classification
According to Japan's garbage classification, resource garbage is divided into plastic, paper, old newspapers and magazines, old clothes, plastic beverage bottles, canned beverage bottles and so on, in addition to combustible and noncombustible garbage. In addition, if you want to change TV, refrigerator and other household appliances, you must also contact people like buyers and pay a certain fee. You can only throw four pieces of big garbage a year at most, otherwise you will have to pay extra.
A more "exquisite" operation is to throw garbage. Japanese families usually put up a garbage recycling schedule on the wall, recycling different kinds of garbage every day, seven days a week. Residents need to send the garbage to the designated place before the fixed time on the day of garbage removal, and they can't miss the time, otherwise they will have to wait for next week.
