篇目一

If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a “lesson” in sorting (
分
类
) garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting regulations (
规章
)
on July 1, 2019.

As
China’s
first
city
to
carry
out
strict
regulations
on
garbage
sorting
and
recycling,
Shanghai
requires
its
residents
(
居民
)
to
sort
garbage into four categories (
类别
), namely recyclable, harmful, dry and
wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined
up to 200 yuan.

Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in
Shanghai
has
been
reduced
by
an
average
of
15,500
tons,
dropping
26
percent
from
the
end
of
2018,
while
the
average
daily
weight
of
recyclables
hits
4,500
tons,
five
times
higher
than
the
end
of
2018,
according
to
the
Shanghai
Landscaping
and
City
Appearance
Administrative Bureau.

The
city
also
rebuilt
21,000
waste-sorting
stations
and
more
than
40,000 waste bins have been updated (
更新
). The city’s waste collection
and
transportation
system
(
运输系统
)
is
complete,
according
to
the
bureau.

“Proper
waste
sorting
protects
the
environment
and
saves
natural
resources,”
said
Deng
Jianping,
director
of
the
bureau.
“Led
by
the
central
government,
Shanghai
is
making
efforts
to
develop
long-term
solutions to garbage m
anagement.”


However,
there
have
also
been
some
problems.
Some
people
complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked
to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping (
倾倒
). According to
the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the
bag must go

in the dry waste bin.
This separation is necessary, as it ensures that the wet garbage will
decompose (
分解
) properly and become useful organic (
有机的
) waste,
the bureau said.
Plastic
bags
can
affect this
process.
Some
people
in
Shanghai
are
instead
using
paper
bags
that
can
biodegrade
（生物降解）
or
plastic
containers that can be washed and reused, according to Xinhua.
