What are the environmental protection signs and their design ideas?

There are one, two and three types of environmental signs in China.

Type II environmental mark, of which Type I environmental mark is the well-known ten ring. The graphic center is composed of green hills, green waters and the sun, representing the environment on which human beings depend. External ten ring is closely linked, indicating public participation and environmental protection. Its moral is "the whole people unite to protect the environment on which human beings depend". The label has clear product technical requirements, and clearly defines the product indicators and testing methods. At present, it has been upgraded to the national environmental protection standard. Type I China Environmental Mark is a certification mark. As an official mark, it shows that the products approved to use the mark are not only qualified in quality, but also meet the environmental protection requirements in the process of production, use, treatment and disposal. Compared with similar products, it has the advantages of low toxicity, less harm and resource saving. It is precisely because of this certification mark that consumers can easily understand which products are beneficial to the environment and which products are harmless to their own health, which is convenient for consumers to make green purchases. Through the choice of consumers and market competition, enterprises will be guided to consciously adjust the industrial structure, adopt cleaner production technology and produce products that are beneficial to the environment, and finally achieve the goal of coordinated development of environmental protection and economy. The certification methods and procedures of environmental labels in China are implemented in accordance with ISO 14020 series standards and ISO 14024 principles and procedures for reporting environmental labels and Class I environmental labels for environmental management, which are consistent with the practices of environmental label plans in various countries. While keeping up with the development of international "eco-labeling" technology, we have actively carried out mutual recognition of environmental labels, and now we have cooperated with Germany, South Korea, Japan and other countries. In order to promote the implementation of the sustainable production strategy of enterprises. /10 2006 On June 24, 2006, the Ministry of Finance of China and the State Environmental Protection Administration jointly promulgated the Opinions on Implementing Government Procurement of Environmental Label Products, which stipulated that state organs, institutions and organizations at all levels should give priority to purchasing environmental label products and should not purchase products harmful to the environment and human health. On June 3, 2007, in view of the grim situation of national energy conservation and emission reduction, the State Council issued the Notice of Comprehensive Work Plan for Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction, in which Article 45 clearly stipulated that energy conservation and green procurement of government agencies should be strengthened, the Implementation Opinions on Government Procurement of Environmental Label Products should be earnestly implemented, the government procurement list system of environmental label products should be further improved, and the scope of government procurement of environmental label products should be continuously expanded. Environmental labeling has become an important means to promote the circular economy strategy in China.

The second type of environmental label is an ecological label verified by a third party through self-environmental declaration, which is different from the principles and procedures of ISO 14024 environmental management environmental label and declaration, the first type of environmental label and the description of environmental information of ISO 14025 environmental management environmental label and declaration (the third type of environmental label). O 1402 1 Environmental Management Environmental Labels and Declarations Self-Environmental Statement (Class II Environmental Labels) stipulates nine basic principles and 18 specific principles that should be followed in self-declaration. In other words, whether the applicant's environmental declaration meets the requirements of the standard can be judged according to the specific principles stipulated in ISO 1402 1. In this sense, ISO 1402 1 "Environmental Management Environmental Labels and Declarations Self-Environmental Declaration (Type II Environmental Labels)" can be used as a certification standard. Although type II environmental label (el) does not require any third party to authenticate the statement in principle. However, it is stipulated in ISO 1402 1 clause: 5.7 i) that "if the product has not been licensed or certified by an independent third party, such prompts shall not be made during the declaration." From this point of view, the standard also recognizes the possibility of verifying the п-type environmental label statement by an independent third party organization, and provides opportunities for developing different types of environmental statements. Therefore, in the case that the credibility of enterprises in China is generally low and consumers don't trust the self-environmental declaration, the certification of the self-environmental declaration by an independent third party can not only standardize the market, but also promote the healthy development of the second-class environmental label. In addition, ISO 1402 1 Clause: 6. 1 stipulates that "the applicant must be responsible for evaluating and providing the data needed to verify the self-environmental statement." Because it is a statement of self-environment, the declarer is responsible for all the statements he has made. The responsibilities of the declarant include evaluating the information and providing necessary information to verify the declaration at the request of relevant institutions. From this point of view, even if there is a third-party organization, the burden of proof to prove the contents of the statement should be borne by the declarant, not the third-party organization. Therefore, the subject of the second kind of environmental label is the declarant. According to the above three characteristics of the second-class environmental label, the implementation of the second-class environmental label in China should be carried out in the way of "third-party evaluation based on enterprises and ISO 1402 1". The specific implementation form is that according to the specific principle of 1402 1 in the ISO standard, the environmental declaration of the enterprise (applicant) is reviewed by a third party, and the qualified enterprise (applicant) is allowed to use the Class II environmental label.

Class III environmental label is an environmental statement based on life cycle assessment, which states the impact of products on the global environment. It should be said that at present, China and even developed countries do not have the basic conditions to comprehensively carry out Class III environmental labels, so there are only two kinds of green labels on the market at present, one is released by a third party, and the other is declared by enterprises themselves. There is no so-called standard conformity mark, because ISO 14020 series standards are not product standards, and it is impossible for consumers to tell whether a product is green or not.
