The harm of using disposable items, disposable items are very common in our life, especially the lunch box and disposable chopsticks when we order takeout, are all disposable items, but we all know that these are harmful, so what is the harm of using disposable items?

Hazard of using disposable articles 1 1 environmental pollution

Disposable articles do great harm to the environment. All kinds of disposable lunch boxes, chopsticks, plastic bags, cups and other items are discarded at will, and the harm to the environment cannot be ignored. In addition, it is difficult to degrade disposable goods, which is mostly made of plastic. The disposable lunch box made of polystyrene takes about 200 years to degrade, which causes serious environmental damage.

2. Harm to health

The low price of disposable products is often related to product quality. The low price can hardly guarantee the quality of high profit, which contains a lot of harmful substances. Harmful substances in disposable lunch boxes can be easily dissolved in food at high temperature, causing trace infection after entering the human body, and even being infected with viruses if disinfection fails.

Step 3 consume resources

The large demand for disposable products consumes a lot of resources, and behind the convenience is the exhaustion of resources. China loses 5 million cubic meters of wood every year because of the production of disposable chopsticks, and needs to cut down 25 million trees. The coverage rate of forest vegetation decreases rapidly, the loss of forest land is serious, and the resources are consumed rapidly and it is difficult to recover in a short time.

Harm of plastic bags:

1, plastic is a kind of high molecular polymer, which is not easy to degrade and takes hundreds of years to decompose. So it causes pollution and public hazards.

2. Destroy the city appearance and environment. Waste plastic products can be seen everywhere, destroying the landscape and affecting the image of the city.

3, endangering human health. Waste plastic products will be harmful to human health if they are polluted.

4. Affect the growth of crops. The plastic film used in farmland will break and stay in the ground after aging, and will not decompose and rot, which will affect the crop harvest.

Harm of disposable wooden chopsticks;

There are generally three bleaching methods for disposable chopsticks, namely, using sulfur dioxide, hydrogen peroxide or calcium (sodium) hypochlorite for bleaching. After bleaching in these three ways, a lot of water is needed for cooking or rinsing. The widespread use of disposable chopsticks is a great waste of forestry resources.

There are a lot of heavy metal pollutants-cadmium, mercury, manganese, etc.-in daily use batteries. When they rot and are abandoned in nature, these toxic substances will slowly overflow from the battery, enter the soil or water source, and then enter the human food chain through crops.

These toxic substances will accumulate in the human body for a long time, which is difficult to eliminate, damaging the nervous system, hematopoietic function, kidneys and bones, and some will cause cancer.

Hazards of using disposable articles 2 Hazards of disposable articles pollute the environment, endanger health and consume resources.

Plastic products made of polystyrene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride and other polymer compounds have the characteristics of low toxicity, high melting point, strong plasticity and simple manufacture, and become excellent materials for making disposable lunch boxes, with low price and disposable use.

However, disposable plastic tableware not only brings convenience to us, but also produces many side effects, which directly pollutes human body and causes secondary pollution to the environment.

Chopsticks are fumigated and bleached with sulfur dioxide during processing. The longer the fumigation time, the whiter the chopsticks and the more sour the smell. At the same time, the transportation and wholesale procedures of disposable chopsticks are complicated, and the whole process is handled by different people many times. Moreover, in order to prevent moisture and insects, different drugs will be sprinkled during transportation and storage.

Disposable chopsticks not only fail to meet the sensory and physical and chemical indicators, but also fail to meet the most basic health indicators such as bacterial content, which poses great health risks and is the medium leading to the occurrence and spread of various diseases.

1, environmental pollution.

Disposable consumer goods cause serious environmental pollution. Disposable articles are thrown away at random after use, and the potential harm to the environment can not be ignored: disposable articles are mostly plastic products, which bring a heavy burden to the environment because they are difficult to degrade.

2. Waste of resources.

One-off consumption led to the crazy plunder of natural resources. China loses 5 million cubic meters of wood every year due to the production of disposable wooden chopsticks. China produces/kloc-0.0 million boxes of disposable chopsticks every year, and it needs to cut down 25 million trees, of which 6 million boxes are exported abroad. Behind the convenience and quickness brought by one-off, it is shocking resource consumption.

3. Health problems.

As a kind of fast-moving consumer goods, disposable products are often inferior in price, and the chaotic market situation is difficult to guarantee the quality of products. Due to the low entry threshold, lax supervision, lack of strict hygiene standards and effective market supervision system, disposable products manufacturers are mixed, and inferior and cheap disposable products flood the market.

Harm of using disposable goods 3 What is disposable goods?

Disposable articles refer to articles that can only be used once. As we all know, there are many kinds of disposable articles, such as disposable lunch boxes, disposable chopsticks, disposable shoe covers and disposable cups. However, some disposable articles are widely used in daily life, but there is no substantive concept about them.

Such as condoms, insoles, toilet seats, etc. In fact, it belongs to the scope of disposable goods.

Advantages of disposable products

1. Hygiene: the paper packaging of fast food restaurants is disposable and hygienic.

2. Recyclability: Most of disposable goods can be recycled, such as paper and plastics.

3. Law (2): The law has certain restrictions on disposable goods. As long as it does not violate the law, it will not cause too much damage to the environment.

4. Medical supplies: Many medical supplies must be disposable. This is not an environmental problem, but a human life problem.

What are the daily necessities that cause indoor air pollution?

There are many objects and articles in the room, which contain various harmful factors. Once exposed to the air, they will give off and cause harm. Mainly includes:

Interior decoration materials and furniture: commonly used are floor leather, floor tiles, chemical fiber carpets, plastic wallpaper, coatings, paints, insulation materials, urea-formaldehyde resin adhesives, and furniture made of fiberboard and plywood bonded with this adhesive.

Office supplies and stationery: such as printers, photocopiers, correction fluid, markers and glue.

Cosmetics: The most typical cosmetics containing volatile organic compounds are nail polish and nail polish remover. In addition, perfume and hair gel also contain volatile organic compounds.

Household hygiene products: such as detergents, detergents, disinfectants and pesticides.

Dry cleaning: Dry cleaners use tetrachloroethylene to remove stains from clothes. The boiling point of tetrachloroethylene is 12 1oC. According to the definition mentioned above, it also belongs to volatile organic compounds. Although dry cleaners generally recycle tetrachloroethylene, a small amount of tetrachloroethylene may remain on clothes, causing air pollution.
