The world revolution in science and technology has not only brought rapid advances in social productive forces, but also produced tremendous material wealth for mankind. It has also created unprecedented destructive power and caused serious pollution to the ecological environment. In the long historical period, people abused the predatory nature of resources, resulting in a large amount of "three wastes" such as wastes, waste gas, and waste water, excessive use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and plant protection agents, which caused serious damage to the ecological environment. Among these, the packaging industry is one of the important industries that cause pollution. In order to solve the pollution problem in the packaging industry, the packaging industry in the developed countries is embarking on a "green revolution."
"Green revolution" is a major change in the world packaging industry, and it is also a major trend in the development of the packaging industry in the new century. This kind of change is the inevitable result of adapting to environmental protection and saving resources in all aspects of concepts, materials, production, and consumption. The main contents of the “green revolution†in the packaging industry include: reducing non-essential consumption, repairing old waste, providing renewable products, stressing economic benefits and ecological benefits, not using products that pollute the environment, destroy natural and wildlife, and comply with equality and Ethical principles do not use non-ethical marketing and products that do not use non-human animal testing.
Now, more and more countries and regions have taken effective measures to carry out the "green revolution" of the packaging industry. What is particularly significant is that governments and non-government organizations in various countries take joint actions to prevent environmental pollution in the packaging industry and the entire environment. More and more consumers welcome and purchase products with the “Environmental Protection Markâ€. The Swedish National Consumer Council conducted an environmental awareness survey of all citizens and interviewed more than 1,000 Swedish citizens. The survey shows that nearly one-third of Swedes are currently actively looking for and buying products that have the “Green Mark†or “Environmental Markâ€. Almost half of Swedes are willing to pay 20% more for the purchase of environmentally-friendly products.
Second, the entry permit: take the "green mark"
From the late 1970s to the early 1980s, in the western economically developed countries, products were introduced into the market and the market's “passâ€â€”“green signâ€. In order to protect the environment, many countries have gradually promoted the "green mark" of products in international trade. All products marked with the “Green Mark†indicate that the product meets the requirements for environmental protection from production to use until the final consumption recovery. A product can only obtain a "passport" to enter the country's market if it has obtained a "green mark" from a country. Otherwise, it is prohibited from entering the country. Since 1986, many industrialized countries and EU member states have successively enacted regulations such as “Packaging Waste Disposal†and prohibited the entry of packaging products that do not meet environmental requirements. Many other countries and regions sign environmental agreements with each other as many as 127, of which 17 contain trade clauses. Legislation that contains trade clauses not only restricts or prohibits informal trade among member states, but also restricts, prohibits, and violates non-members who violate laws and regulations. Trade between countries. Obviously, "green marks," "green laws," and multilateral environmental agreements constitute a new kind of non-tariff barriers. Any product that violates environmental protection regulations will lose its competitiveness in the international market. The French government’s environmental protection agencies encourage and help manufacturers invest heavily in the development, development and production of “green packagingâ€. The environmental protection department clearly stipulates that “food recycling†must be printed on the food packaging. In today's international market, products marked with “Green Mark†packaging have stronger market competitiveness, and green packaging products that are conducive to environmental protection can survive and develop.
Third, the rule of law: Disable hazardous packaging
Managing pollution in the packaging industry is an important aspect of managing environmental pollution. In many Western developed countries, the strengthening of environmental protection laws and regulations is strictly regulated by the rule of law and the prohibition of the use of hazardous packaging materials in food packaging, such as developed countries in the United States, Italy, Switzerland, the European Union, and Germany, has formulated and implemented a number of relevant regulations. Act or regulation. (To be continued)
