More than 9% of the waste that can be used in Chinese mainland is buried or burned. For example, there are more than 1.5 billion tons of construction waste every year, and only a few thousand tons are recycled, and the premise of achieving maximum utilization is garbage classification.

However, Hangzhou has been a pilot city for garbage sorting since 2, and it has been abandoned since then. On March 25th, 21, the trial of garbage sorting was started again, and the garbage was divided into harmful waste, recyclable garbage, kitchen garbage and other garbage, corresponding to red, blue, green and yellow trash cans respectively, and degradable kitchen waste garbage bags were provided free of charge.

Garbage sorting has covered 98% of the living quarters in Hangzhou, and 93, tons of garbage enter the recyclable channel every year.

Japanese garbage classification

According to Japanese garbage classification laws, in addition to combustible and nonflammable garbage, resource garbage is also subdivided into plastic, paper, old newspapers and magazines, old clothes, plastic beverage bottles, canned beverage bottles and so on. In addition, in order to change TV, refrigerator and other household appliances, you must also contact someone like the purchaser and pay a certain fee. Big pieces of garbage can only be thrown up to 4 pieces a year, otherwise you need to pay extra.

a more "exquisite" operation is to throw garbage. Japanese families usually have garbage recycling schedules posted on their walls, seven days a week, and different kinds of garbage are recycled every day. Residents need to send the garbage to the designated place before the fixed time on the day of garbage removal, and they can't miss the time, otherwise they will have to wait for next week.
