Recycling: China takes it seriously

On July 1st, Shanghai launched(頒布）a new and very strict recycling law. People who fail to obey it could be fined as much as 200 yuan($30) while the fine for companies can be as high as 50,000 yuan ($7,285). And many were fined. It became a hot topic in Shanghai, even around China. All major cities in China are expected to start similar garbage classification(分類) within the year.

WHY RECYCLE

Too much garbage: Everything about China is big. When it comes to garbage, there are 215 million tons of each year, and still growing, by as high as 10% every year. Too much pollution: Landfill and burning, two main disposal methods(處理方法) in China, are problematic in themselves and could lead to more pollution if handled improperly(處理不當(dāng)). Too many usable: There are many usable materials in garbage, and trash sorting can help collect such recyclables more efficiently. Even compost(肥料) can be used.

HOW TO SORT

Most Chinese cities classify(分類) garbage into four categories: Recyclables: Newspapers, mirrors, plastics, cans, glass, fabrics, and abandoned electronics. Kitchen waste: perishables(易腐的) such as leftovers, offal(動物內(nèi)臟), fruit peel, tea grounds, as well as eggshells and fallen leaves of potted plants. Others: disposable(一次性的)dishware, broken bowls and dishes, tissues, diapers(尿布), plastic wrap, and large animal bones. Dangerous waste: rechargeable batteries, lighting tubes,expired(過期的) medicines, mercury thermometers (水銀溫度計)and etc.

In addition to fines, Chinese cities are taking other measures as well. For example, Lectures(講座) on trash sorting have been given at kindergartens, elementary and middle schools. People who properly classify garbage can receive points and regularly exchange the points for small gifts. If you want to know more about recycling in China, please click chinadaily.com.cn.
