What is the effect of the “plastic limit order” in Zhongshan? Recently, the Zhongshan Investigation Team of the National Bureau of Statistics interviewed 200 citizens randomly to understand their attitude towards the “plastic limit order” and their evaluation of the effect. According to the survey, 51.5% of the respondents thought that the “plastic limit order” was effective, and only 11% of respondents thought the effect was good.

Not yet rid of dependence on plastic shopping bags

The theme of this year’s World Environment Day is exactly the “speedy decision”, calling on the world to work together to fight the problem of disposable plastic pollution. However, from the point of view of the visit, the frequency of the use of plastic shopping bags by the public has not changed significantly after the promulgation of the “plastic limit order”.

Asked whether the frequency of use of plastic shopping bags by respondents after the release of the “plastic limit order” has changed. 20.5% said no change, 58.5% said a slight decrease, only 14.5% said a significant decrease, in addition, 5.5% said a slight increase, and 1.0% said a substantial increase. Although eco-friendly shopping bags such as non-woven bags and paper bags have emerged in the past decade, people still cannot get rid of their dependence on plastic shopping bags in their daily lives.
