With the pursuit of convenient lifestyles and the development of tourism, the use of disposable plastics is becoming more and more common, and the pollution of the environment and the ocean is also increasing. According to EU statistics, the proportion of plastic waste in all waste is as high as 85%, of which about half is a one-off product. Less than one-third of the plastic waste is collected and reused, and most of the rest is left in landfills or in the environment. Plastics decompose very slowly, especially in the oceans and beaches, which are very harmful to birds, fish and other marine animals. The plastic residue eaten by the animals is fed back through the food chain and will return to people’s table, which is harmful to human health.

In response to the global hazard of plastic waste, the European Commission submitted a proposal for controlling plastic waste in May, hoping to ban the use of disposable plastic items such as disposable tableware. According to the latest proposal of the European Parliament, starting from 2021, the EU will ban the production and sale of disposable plastic products such as disposable tableware, cotton swabs and straws, which will be replaced by paper, straw or reusable hard plastic. Plastic bottles will be collected separately according to existing recycling models; by 2025, the recycling rate of disposable plastic bottles in Member States is required to reach 90%.
