Even in Korea, where huge amounts of plastic are used every year, we can realize the change. Since last summer, coffee shops have been serving coffee in mugs instead of disposable containers. You can also see paper straws that replace plastic straws or multi-use stainless steel straws. Starbucks Korea offers eco-friendly paper straws at all stores nationwide from the 26th. Not long ago, there was news that McDonald's in China was stopping providing plastic straws. Also, voices calling for changing all food wrappers to eco-friendly ones are gaining strength. Foods that fill the shelves of large marts are usually made of materials that harm the environment, such as plastic, vinyl film, and paper. It rarely breaks down even when buried in the ground, and it makes the Earth sick. The "2019 Food Trend" recently released by Hall Food, the largest eco-friendly food distributor in the U.S., also said, "The packaging of eco-friendly materials will become a trend." Many c...

In October last year, the EU passed a bill banning the use of several disposable plastics from 2021 to cotton swabs, plastic straws, and forks. With European ...

At a price of self-price, countless kinds of garbage pour out during quarantine. The way to throw away the garbage is different from country to city, thinking about the environment a little more. So what I'm going to say today is why we have to recycle 1. Separated garbage can be recycled again, saving resources. 2. I only throw away the garbage that I can't recycle, so there's less trash. 3. For example, recycling cans by separating them costs less than making new cans, which saves money. 4. Non-corrosive garbage such as plastic bottles and glass bottles can be separated and collected, thus making the environment clean. 5. Resource utilization increases by distinguishing between recycled items and non-recycling and incineration materials. : Iron, aluminum, glass bottles, pet bottles, paper, etc. 6. It is economical because it can reduce the cost of incineration or landfill. Reduced power costs and improved incineration efficiency by reducing the amount of time spent on inc...

Problems with Disposable Products Using disposable products will result in a waste of resources. Most of the raw materials used to produce products are not all buried indefinitely. So we have to save as many of these resources as possible, but if we use a lot of disposable products, we'll waste our resources by using resources that we don't need to use.  If disposable products are used, that's how much waste is generated. It takes a lot of money and energy to dispose of these wastes, and it also causes a lot of environmental pollution. In particular, disposable products use a lot of raw materials wrapped in plastic rather than eco-friendly materials, which in particular cost a lot of energy and money to process, and pollutants also occur in the process. Also, disposable products have a lower rate of treatment than products that are generally used for a long time because of their convenience. (You can feel that most of the garbage on the street is easy to carry, such...
