12.They hang from trees.They float in rivers and oceans.They are piled up in landfills(垃圾填埋場).Our frequent use of plastic products has,for many years,been a leading cause of serious environmental problems in the world.Last month,China drew up new guidelines(指導方針)aiming to bring plastic pollution under control across the country in five years' time. According to the new guidelines,the ban(禁令)on the use of non-biodegradable(不可生物降解的)plastic bags will have been applied to cities including Beijing and Shanghai by the end of this year.Other sources of plastic garbage will have been banned in these cities by the end of 2022.And that rule will have extended nationwide by late 2025. Fortunately,China will not start from zero.Late last year,the country announced a national standard for biodegradable plastic shopping bags.It is technologically prepared for their production.Some regions have gained valuable experience that others can learn from.For example,Jilin province is leading the way by providing eco-friendly(環保的)shopping bags in some local supermarkets. Given the size of China's consumer market,one main obstacle(障礙)is the large number of plastic items that are being used by restaurants and e-commerce(電子商務)platforms.It's estimated that nearly 25 billion plastic bags were used for deliveries in 2018.Most of them were rarely reused. However,most Chinese people welcomed the government's effort to reduce the use of plastics."Beijing is thinking about the problem seriously,"said Tang Damin,a member of Greenpeace East Asia in Beijing.He added that the policy could be far more effective(有效)by using incentives(激勵)such as a deposit(押金)return program on plastic products.
