After the plastic shopping bag has completed the service life of the packaging material, where is the final destination? There are three types of destinations:
First, it is used as a garbage bag by residents. Packed garbage enters the garbage disposal site, or is buried or burned, and is harmless to the environment.
The second is to be recycled, enter the reprocessing enterprise, and return to the furnace to produce plastic bags or other plastic products. The whole process is also very environmentally friendly.
Third, it is discarded by the user in the wild, and only this part will cause environmental pollution.
Less than 1% of the plastic shopping bags used are randomly discarded into the wild, and as the level of civilization in human society continues to increase, the percentage of discards will be lower and lower. For example, the discard rate in Western countries is less than 0.5%.
