On March 5th, during an exclusive interview with the reporters of our newspaper, Changyou Zhou, a deputy to the National People's Congress, focused on the hot topics of the recycling and utilization of waste plastics and the development of a circular economy, and deeply shared his research findings, opinions and suggestions. He stated that the problem of plastic pollution is becoming increasingly serious, and it is extremely urgent to strengthen the recycling and utilization of waste plastics and develop a circular economy.

In the current global wave of environmental protection, a heavyweight news is like a giant stone thrown into the surface of the plastic industry - in 2025, Thailand and Indonesia will both wield the "sword of prohibition" and say "no" to imported waste plastics.

Plastic products are ubiquitous in daily life, but after being discarded, they have become a major concern for the earth. The world produces a massive amount of plastic waste every year, and China's situation is particularly prominent. However, the comprehensive utilization of waste plastic resources is flourishing, breaking the environmental barrier.

With the gradual advancement of the dual carbon target, the reduction of emissions that can be achieved through circular economy and plastic recycling products has become a key focus for enterprises. This not only affects recycling and regeneration enterprises, but also has an impact on brand enterprises and even upstream polymer companies.
