IShanghai iza kuqalisa umthetho ongqongqo wokuvalwa kweplastiki ukususela nge-1 kaJanuwari 2021, apho iivenkile ezinkulu, iivenkile ezinkulu, iikhemesti, kunye neevenkile zeencwadi zingayi kuvunyelwa ukuba zithengise iingxowa zeplastiki ezilahlwayo kubathengi simahla, okanye ngentlawulo, njengoko kubikwe yiJiemian.com ngoDisemba 24. Ngokufanayo, ishishini lokupheka esixekweni alisayi kukwazi ukubonelela ngeengca zeplastiki ezilahlwayo nezingasetyenziswayo, okanye iingxowa zeplastiki ezithathwayo. Kwiimarike zokutya zemveli, amanyathelo anjalo aya kutshintshwa ngokuqala ngemiqathango ethambileyo ukusuka ngo-2021 ukuya ekuthintelweni ngokupheleleyo kweengxowa zeplastiki ekupheleni kuka-2023. Ngaphezu koko, urhulumente waseShanghai uyalele iindawo zokuhambisa iimpahla zeposi nezikhawulezayo ukuba zingasebenzisi izixhobo zokupakisha zeplastiki ezingasetyenziswayo kwaye zinciphise ukusetyenziswa kwetape yeplastiki engasetyenziswayo ngama-40% ekupheleni kuka-2021. Ekupheleni kuka-2023, iteyiphu enjalo iya kuba ivaliwe. Ukongeza, zonke iihotele kunye neendawo zokuqeshisa iiholide akufuneki zibonelele ngezinto zeplastiki ezingasetyenziswayo ekupheleni kuka-2023.

Ngokuthobela izikhokelo ezintsha ze-NDRC zokulawula ungcoliseko lweplastiki kulo nyaka, iShanghai iya kuba yenye yephondo nezixeko eziza kwamkela ukuvalwa okunjalo kweplastiki kulo lonke ilizwe. NgoDisemba, iBeijing, iHainan, iJiangsu, iYunnan, iGuangdong, kunye neHenan nazo zikhuphe imiqathango yeplastiki yasekuhlaleni, zithintela ukuveliswa kunye nokuthengiswa kweetafile zeplastiki ezilahlwayo ekupheleni kwalo nyaka. Kutshanje, amasebe asibhozo aphambili akhuphe imigaqo-nkqubo yokukhawulezisa ukusetyenziswa kokupakisha okuluhlaza kushishino lokuhambisa izinto ngokukhawuleza ekuqaleni kwale nyanga, njengokuphunyezwa kwesiqinisekiso semveliso yokupakisha eluhlaza kunye neenkqubo zokulebhelisha iilebheli zokupakisha ezinokubola.
