If it was 10 years ago, surely few of us would have thought about reducing plastic or not using plastic bags, or a life without waste. But with the acquisition of knowledge, understanding and concern about the environment, Green Lifestyle, Green Consumption, and a series of Green activities for the environment have become extremely familiar and popular.
So at the moment, what are people thinking about reducing plastic waste? The facts show that:
About 90% of the interviewees said that it is necessary to reduce the use of single-use plastic products while only 6% answered that it is not necessary.
? 95.4% of respondents believe that garbage should be sorted at their household before collection;
? More than 70% of respondents answered “Yes” to “Paying for substitutes” and “Increasing taxes on businesses producing plastic products”;
? 81.3% and 76.9% said that environmental state management agencies and environmental companies are responsible for reducing plastic waste.
