Chapter 737

Tang Xiaoxin held a question and looked at another exhibition board next to her!

Several little people are drawn in the shape of cartoons, saying different views.

"Nature is very powerful. Don't be too amorous. We can't have much impact on nature."

"Science and technology will invent something new to solve this problem sooner or later! Even if we reduce the use of plastic by 20% and 30%, will the whales and dolphins in the sea not die?"

"We ordinary people don't need to consider this problem. This kind of thing should be considered by the government, enterprises and scientific research institutions. Others don't do my thing well."

"As long as you recycle the plastic, everything will be fine."

It is not easy to deal with this problem, so we often bury our heads in the sand, pretend that the problem does not exist, and even come up with all kinds of bad reasons to perfunctory ourselves.

Of course, the adaptability of nature is very strong, but there is also a limit, and what humans do has already broken through this limit.

The development of science and technology can not solve all problems, and even bring new problems, just like plastics. Technology cannot regulate the global climate, nor can it prevent millions of tons of plastic from being eaten by animals in the sea and releasing toxic substances.

Even if scientists warn, how much attention is paid to this warning? Now many people think that global warming is a conspiracy theory... And the government also has a priority. Construction, development and education are all worth doing. What is the ranking of the environment? Environmental issues are not a priority.

As for recycling, only about 10% of plastics are really recycled all over the world, and 40% of plastics are not easy to recycle. The collection, classification, treatment and reuse of waste need to invest a lot of money. Recycling is not magic. If you put plastic in the recycling bin, it will become a new plastic packaging, which does not need any cost, still consumes water and energy, and can not be reused indefinitely.

Even if there is a recycling system, there will still be a lot of plastic products floating outside, such as drifting away with the wind and finally flowing into the ocean.

What we can do:

1. Think about it. When shopping at ordinary times, we usually think about the product itself. Now we can think about whether we really need this thing. Is there a more environmentally friendly substitute? Enterprises will make changes only when they feel the needs of consumers.

2. Reject unnecessary items and reduce the use of plastics. All kinds of disposable things, such as straw, can't you drink without straw? Go out to drink water, bring a water cup, go shopping in the supermarket, prepare a handbag or the plastic bag you bought last time, and continue to use it this time.

Go to the dining hall and order less takeout, or at least prepare your own chopsticks and spoons, indicating that you don't need tableware. Their own tableware is not clean and sanitary compared with disposable ones.

Toothbrushes are also very common on the beach. A large amount of garbage will turn into thousands of small pieces over time. The next time you buy a toothbrush, you can consider a degradable bamboo toothbrush, or a toothbrush with a replacement head but no handle, which can also reduce some plastic.

These are small things that ordinary people can do. If everyone has this awareness, a lot of plastic waste can be reduced.

3. Repair broken clothes, toys and broken mobile phones. You can consider repairing them to prolong their service life. You don't have to buy a new one directly. The old clothes were new for three years, old for three years, and mended for three years. But now the material level is rich. It's not easy to find a shop to mend clothes. Perhaps with the increasingly serious environmental problems, this trend will slowly come back in the future.

4. Reuse. Now many second-hand websites, such as second-hand book trading platforms, catch more fish. For books with an original price of 160, the second-hand price is only 60. Isn't it fragrant? After reading the book, you can sell it for blood.

As for recycling, the most important steps are actually the first few steps to reduce the generation of plastic waste from the root. Recycling is the last choice. We have also mentioned various problems in recycling.

Our behavior towards the environment will change with the enhancement of consciousness. In the past, we didn't think there was anything wrong with running red lights, urinating everywhere and persuading people to drink. Now, although these behaviors have not disappeared, they have also converged a lot.

There are many specific examples in the exhibition, which can be done by ordinary people.

After reading the exhibition card, everyone showed a thoughtful expression.

Maybe you can try it in life?

The problem of plastics is shouting every day, but I don't know the situation is so serious.

Everyone enjoys the convenience of plastics, but no one wants to live on a planet full of non degradable waste.

There is a saying that we should not do evil or good. It is also very applicable here.

Reduce the use of plastic products in some small places in life. Over time, it will greatly improve the environment. If everyone doesn't care, install ostriches, find out all kinds of reasons for not taking action, and find a way to solve the problem when it's urgent and burning his ass, it will really be hopeless.

……

Tang Xiaoxin had a meal in the animal restaurant and then went to the zoo in the afternoon.

Hippo house!

When she came here, Tang Xiaoxin couldn't help but fan her hand: "ah, this taste is really rich!"

Money can be funny: "it's right to have taste!"

Although the hippo Pavilion changes the water very diligently and the water quality looks very clear, with the hippo's fecal making ability, it will soon make the whole area diffuse its taste.

This is also a unique experience that you can feel when you come to the zoo.

At first glance, no Hippo was found, but looking down the eyes of other tourists, there was a black shadow in the water on the bank.

The hippo was fat and peeped out of the top of his head, like a gray and insignificant stone on the water, looking around with round eyes.

Then a breeder in overalls came over!

Seeing the keeper, Pangpang stood up from the water, revealing his huge body, and then Dudu also floated up, making the calm water ripple in circles.

"Wow ~"

"How powerful! How big!"

Seeing such a scene, the tourists immediately exclaimed!

Like a submarine suddenly floating from the water, the impact is no worse than that of a beauty, even more shocking.

The breeder usually takes a big brush to clean the hippo's mouth after a period of time.

Two hippos saw the breeder with a brush and knew that it was to brush their teeth. They couldn't wait to open their mouths and show some strong teeth, ready to accept the cleaning service.

The breeder served Pangpang first, raked around in his mouth, opened the thick meat and checked his oral health.
