[Commentary] After Shanghai and Beijing, Shanxi will also implement garbage classification on June 1, and China has taken another step toward the era of mandatory garbage classification. However, in the process of garbage classification, some problems have occurred in some areas. During the two sessions of the National Committee, representatives from various regions made suggestions on the difficulties and pain points.
[Commentary] At present, the standards for "garbage classification" vary from place to place. Shanghai divides household garbage into dry garbage, wet garbage, hazardous garbage and recyclables, corresponding to black, gray, red and blue trash cans respectively; Beijing divides into kitchen waste, recyclables, hazardous garbage and other garbage, Corresponding to the green, blue, red and gray trash cans ... different names and different logos, people will face the torture of "what kind of trash are you" every time they change a city. Zhu Guiyan, deputy of the National People's Congress, suggested that the country should unify the garbage classification standards and the unified logo, so that people can recognize and distinguish clearly.
[Same period] National People's Congress Zhu Guiyan
I think there should be an obvious logo, what garbage and what garbage, you can use images, you can draw the picture, put this garbage in this bin, put this garbage in this bin, what is recyclable harmful or non-recyclable That ’s how it ’s clearly marked. Let ’s unify it. Do n’t have different cities (standards).
【Explanation】 Garbage classification is a whole process management chain from sorting, sorting collection to sorting transportation and sorting disposal. The National People's Congress representative Yang Xiaoxue suggested that a basic law on waste sorting should be issued as soon as possible to clarify the responsibilities and obligations of the responsible subjects of each link.
[Same period] Yang Xiaoxue, NPC deputy
Relying on guidance alone and positive publicity alone, there may still be a big problem in advancing the work. Therefore, I think the state should formulate rules and regulations at the legal level to force people ’s behaviors and let people form behavior consciousness or behavior habits.
[Explanation] In the classification and release link, Yang Xiaoxue suggested that the uncivilized behavior of garbage classification can be publicized by referring to the traffic control department's way of rectifying uncivilized traffic behavior.
[Same period] Yang Xiaoxue, NPC deputy
We can publicize him like the old Lai in the court, and publicize uncivilized behaviors. Now many places seem not to travel according to traffic lights, or other uncivilized behaviors. Some places are publicized, and everyone is still very educated. It ’s easy to change. I think it ’s a good idea to use uncivilized traffic habits.
[Explanation] After the residents have sorted and put the garbage in place, some places have problems of "pre-separation before mixing" and "mixed loading and mixed transportation" in the process of garbage transshipment. Good supervision, you can collaborate to collect and dispose of household waste in teams.
[Same period] Chen Lixiang, member of the CPPCC National Committee
That is to say, in the middle of the garbage recycling process, do we separate it into several companies or teams, for example, I collect kitchen waste at 9 o'clock, collect recyclables at 10 o'clock, and collect hazardous waste at 11 o'clock If it is divided into several groups to collect in this way, it will be done very well.
[Explanation] The implementation of garbage classification also increases the workload of sanitation workers to a certain extent. Zhu Guiyan suggested that all localities can increase the establishment of sanitation personnel and increase the investment of equipment according to actual needs.
[Same period] National People's Congress Zhu Guiyan
Add personnel and equipment. The following conditions are all necessary. The garbage has been sorted. For example, you can deal with one trip at the earliest. Then you are divided into four types and five types, then you will score five trips to deal with. That person has to increase in every aspect.
[Explanation] Zhu Guiyan said that it will take some time for the waste classification to be popularized throughout the country. In this process, the country should insist on using mandatory means to make waste classification a normal way of life in order to better protect the environment.
