Developing Bio-based Materials Industry to Crack White Pollution

A turtle, because the shell is entangled in a plastic bag when it is small, when it grows up, the entanglement divides the whole turtle shell into two distinct parts, like a tight hoop. The hazards and threats brought by plastic products are more than sea turtles. The plastic white pollution that can be seen everywhere in our lives is also affecting our beautiful life.
The development of bio-based degradable materials not only can fundamentally solve the problem of white pollution, but also greatly reduce the consumption of oil by the material industry and ease Petrochemicals resources pressure.
With the development of the petrochemical industry, plastics have become an indispensable material. At the same time, the problem of white pollution caused by plastic waste is becoming more and more serious, especially for the ecological environment such as ocean and land soil.
Quoted a report issued by the UN Environment Agency that the pollution caused by non-degradable plastic materials from oil has spread to every corner of the globe, and the number of plastic bags used every year in the world is as high as 5 trillion. They expand side by side and cover an area equivalent to two French sizes. However, to date, only 9% of the world's 9 billion tons of plastics have been recycled, and most of the rest have been thrown into landfills, landfills or the natural environment.
According to statistics, about 8 million tons of plastic waste is discharged into the sea every year. By 2050, the weight of plastic in the ocean will exceed that of fish.

When the waste plastics in the ocean are gradually decomposed into plastic particles, it will cause more difficult environmental problems, and plastic micro-particles such as fish and salt may enter the human body. These plastic particles are derived from the washing of cosmetic or broken waste plastics and chemical fiber fabrics.
Developing bio-based degradable materials can effectively solve these problems.
Bio-based Materials are new materials made from bio-chemical, chemical, and physical methods using renewable biomass as raw materials, including crops and straws. They have the advantages of environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction, and renewable raw materials. The category also has good biodegradability.
Many countries have included bio-based materials in their national development strategies, and China should also vigorously promote the application and development of Bio-based Materials.

Building and improving China's bio-based materials industry, especially the bio-based biodegradable materials industry's production and application industry chain. The top-level design of the development direction of the bio-based materials industry will focus on the development of a number of materials that are in demand and capable of rapid scale, such as Polylactic Acid and bio-based nylon. The use of bio-based materials in the national economy and daily life should be promoted. Strengthen the classification of waste, vigorously support the degradation of compost, especially the development of household composting technology, and clarify the responsibility and obligation of producers, sellers and consumers at all levels for recycling, garbage sorting and waste composting degradation in the context of regulations.
