2008年12月四级作文: Limiting the Use of Disposable Plastic Bags
1.一次性塑料袋曾被广泛的使用
2.造成的问题
3.限制使用的意义

Disposable plastic bags were once widely used in China. When we went shopping at supermarkets and
departments stores, shopping assistants often provided free plastic bags for our convenience. For a while, life without
them seemed unimaginable for most of us.
However, disposable plastic bags do bring severe damage to our environment. Costumers usually threw them away
after use, and because they are thin and hard to decompose, these plastic products will exist for a long time. This is an
immediate threat to our earth and water.
Nowadays, the government has passed relevant regulations for limiting the use of disposable plastic bags: they are
not free any more. In some shopping places, in order to invoke the public awareness of environmental protection,
plastic bags are offered in a much higher price. As a result, people are changing their behavior: paper and clothing
bags that vanished for a long time come back to our daily life. It is true that by limiting its usage, everyone in this
society contributes some effort to the improvement of the environment.

Plastic bags have been an indispensable part of our daily life for it brings us much convenience. We are so
dependent upon plastic bags that use of them is ever increasing. Despite the convenience it brought to people, it also
caused a lot of problems among which the environmental pollution was the biggest concern. Plastic bags not only
affect the beautifulness of our environment, but also do harm to our health, because they are made of some kind of
chemical material which can not be discomposed.
Therefore, limiting the use of disposable plastic bags is of great significance. First of all, this policy can reduce
pollution and save a lot of resource at the same time; secondly, it contributes a lot of resource at the same time;

environment for people. In short, we should do our best to limit the use of plastic bags for ourselves and for the next
generation.

For many years we have been using disposal plastic bags when we are shopping on the market, and most often
these bags are offered by the shops for free. This, undoubtedly, has brought us great convenience in our daily life.
However, its disadvantages are also very apparent, and I’ll just venture to explore two aspects. For one thing, the
plastic bags are mostly indecomposable in the natural state so that with the increasing use of these bags, it will not only
seriously bring about the so-called “white pollution” to the environment, it can also cost us a lot to have them
decompose completely so as to minimize their damage to the environment. For another, the production of plastic bags
are often not strictly supervised, so a large proportion of the bags don’t meet the requirements for healthy products,
which means the more we use them, the more likely we are to suffer in health.
The negative effects of the plastic bags are far serious than what I’ve mentioned above, so it’s high time the
government issued strict laws and measures to stop using the bags. By so doing, we can save a lot of money from
producing these bags as well as return a cleaner earth to ourselves and the later generations.

Nowadays we may find ourselves surrounded by a sea of disposable plastic bags. And recently the problems of
using disposable plastic bags have been brought into people’s focus.
First of all, the use of disposable plastic bags causes irreversible harm to our environment. As these bags are not
biodegradable, they are blocking the drainage system and causing water pollution. What’s more, customers using
disposable plastic bags may think that they are of great convenience. But what they don’t quite realize is that there will
