<Anchor> It is said that a

100-liter pay-as-you-go bag is so heavy when it is full of trash that it causes the US Environmental Protection Agency to suffer problems. The Ministry of Environment also recommended not using 100-litre bags for businesses with heavy waste last year, but nearly half of them are still using them.

alley with lots of restaurants and bars. Nearly half of the garbage bags are 100 liters.

Lack of power alone. The two dragged on the ground.

The Ministry of Environment recommends not to carry more than 25kg in a 100 liter bag, but there are many bags over 30kg.

[Kim Yong-seop/Environmental Beauty Institute: It hurts a lot. Waist, especially waist. My back hurts the most... Many people are taking painkillers every day.] The

Ministry of Environment recommended that companies that discharge over 300kg of garbage per day not use 100 liter bags in April of last year, and local governments are getting rid of 100 liter bags.

Either reduce the capacity to 75 liters or replace it with a 50 liter envelope.

However, half of the nation's municipalities still have no plans to dispose of 100 liter envelopes.

It's that we can't ignore the needs of some self-employed people that it's convenient to pack a lot at once.

[Self-employed: I can't put a lot in a small envelope. Such a big business. Someone like us can do this (100ℓ garbage bag).]

The 100 liter envelope is a matter directly related to the health of the Environmental Protection Agency, so even if it is a little uncomfortable, the consensus that the local government has to decide to withdraw is growing.

Some local governments have provided blankets for quilts, but there should also be an alternative to discard large-sized garbage.
