The result of the plastic limit order
According to the data, from 2008 to 20 16, about 70 billion plastic shopping bags were saved in major retail places in China, and about 8.75 billion plastic shopping bags were saved every year. However, in just 20 16 years, the national express delivery industry consumed about 147 billion plastic bags, and the three domestic take-out platforms consumed at least 7.3 billion plastic bags a year, far exceeding the savings of retail malls.
According to statistics, the package volume of China Express in 20 18 exceeded 50 billion on February 28th 18. The president of Guangdong Modern Logistics Research Institute once said that the express delivery industry has been advocating to reduce the use of plastic packaging bags, but the implementation process is not very good.
