【環保紀錄片】塑料王國
我們扔的垃圾去了哪裡呢?
今天小編想推薦一部優秀的國產紀錄片。人們與進口垃圾共同生活的場景觸目驚心,但在這種環境中也仍蘊藏著略帶苦澀的溫情和對生活的希望。
「中國買家往往出高價買走其他國家的垃圾,因為塑料加工在中國有著難以想像的龐大市場。這些看似無用的垃圾被很多人當成寶,能再利用,也能讓很多農民創造財富……儘管因為髒亂差等污染因素,很多類似文安縣這種廢塑料回收作坊被當地政府反復取締,但因為這個產業有利可圖、成本低下,所以在華南、華北、東南沿海等很多地方迅速擴散,這並不是一個地方的現象。然而,關閉廢塑料作坊、停止使用塑料製品的呼聲顯然不切實際,因為這意味著我們身邊幾乎所有的日用品都無法使用;同時,如果廢塑料得不到有效回收處理,它們中大部分不是被填埋,就是最終被傾倒進了海洋。」
全球貿易,環境污染,垃圾回收,貧窮,教育……這部片子有太多值得深思。願更多人都能關注到塑料背後的隱密世界。
[Environmental Documentary] Plastic China
Do you know where the trash we throw away goes?
Today the editor would like to recommend an excellent domestically produced documentary. While the scene of people living with imported garbage is shocking, hope for life and true care between people still can be seen in such environment.
“Chinese buyers often pay high prices to buy waste from other countries, because plastic processing has an unimaginable huge market in China. This seemingly useless waste is regarded as treasure by many people. It can be reused and can also bring many farmers wealth…… Although many plastic waste recycling workshops like in Wen’an County have been repeatedly banned by the local government due to factors such as pollution and extremely poor conditions, this industry was still expanded quickly to the southern, northern, and southeast coastal areas of China due to its profitability and low-cost. Its rapid spread in many places is not a local phenomenon. However, the call to close plastic waste recycling workshops and stop using plastic products is obviously unrealistic, because it means that almost all daily necessities around us cannot be used; at the same time, without effective recycling, most of plastic wastes are either landfilled or eventually dumped into the ocean.”
Global trade, plastic, pollution, garbage recycling, poverty, education… There is so much to think about in this documentary. Hopefully more people will pay attention to the secret world behind plastic.
