Answer 1

From June 1st, 2008, China will ban ultra-thin plastic bags from supermarkets and stores. Meanwhile, one of the representatives of the People’s Congress, Chen Fei gave each representative of the national minority nationalities a bamboo basket and a handkerchief to respond the order.

As we can see in Picture 1, plastic bags have caused a severe waste of resources. They get easily broken and are left abandoned everywhere, ending up as litter. Worse still, the low rate of recycling results in the badly polluted environment.

Fortunately, people have to realize the importance of environmental friendly and taken effective measures to reduce the consumption of plastic bags using bamboo baskets, as we can see in Picture 2. In my opinion, the ban on plastic bags will bring China in line with a growing international trend to cut plastic bag use. Besides, rubbish has been acknowledged as one of the country’s biggest environmental challenges and the ban on plastic bags is one of the solutions to the problem.
