Plastic bags that can be degraded by the sea are all liars?
Plastic waste mainly comes from land applications, such as consumer goods packaging made of high durability polyolefin. These traditional plastics have ideal properties, including high chemical stability, moisture resistance and thermoplastic properties. Unfortunately, when they reach the marine environment, they split into microplastics that are not bioabsorbable.

Who released its first microplastics report, calling for measures to be taken: it's all in the water you drink!
According to the report, according to the information available so far, the microplastics in drinking water do not necessarily pose a threat to health. In spite of this, World Health Organization (WHO) still called on decision makers and the public to take measures to control and reduce the use of plastics as much as possible to improve the environment and promote human health.

ESG is the Necessary Evil, and the Markets and Entrepreneurs are Taking Full Advantage
A few months ago, I published a piece arguing that ESG will become the new bottom line. This is not a politically motivated statement, and I don’t fully agree with the ESG approach. I do believe however, it is time to change, and it is time for executives, entrepreneurs, and investors to appreciate we are at an economic and societal transition point. This transition will force us to engage the consumer base more dynamically, while placing greater efforts to decarbonize our business operations. These issues are both good for business and good for society provided companies and investors are willing to take risk and change. Capitalism models should be leveraged to create profits while absorbing the societal problem-solving more systematically. Please note that I have adopted a rather broad definition of ESG in my analysis to ensure I capture the sustainability, clean tech, and climate risk investment trends.

To crack the "original sin" of plastic pollution, petrochemical and plastic reduction is imperative!
National Geographic magazine released a thought-provoking cover in June 2018: a plastic bag floating on the sea, shaped like a giant glacier. It is only a small corner of the sea level, and there is still a large area hidden below the surface of the water.

Research | Burning plastic is over. Microplastics laugh: you are so naive!
Microplastics (Microplastics, maximum diameter ≤ 5mm) are everywhere, and their potential toxicity is attracting more and more attention all over the world. At present, there are two main ways to reduce microplastic pollution, one is to reduce plastic consumption and the production of plastic waste at the source, and the other is to strengthen the recovery and disposal of plastic waste. However, both roads are fraught with difficulties. As a way of disposal, waste incineration and energy recovery account for a large proportion of solid waste treatment systems in both developed and developing countries.

War is Destroying Our Planet
Environmental damage and wars exist in a positive feedback loop. As resources dwindle, more conflicts emerge. As conflicts take place, more natural resources are rendered useless. With each cycle, the limited availability of resources and the frequency of war push more towards extremes.
