Thank you very much again, my HEROES!
China’s Yangtze River is the world’s third-longest river. It is home to nearly 400 species of fish. However, the Chinese paddlefish( 白 鲟 ), once c1.in the area, is no longer a member of this ecosystem. Scientists from China said recently that the species had completely d2.. The fish l3.went extinct( 灭 绝 ) sometime between 2005 and 2010. “It’s very sad,” said Zeb Hogan, a U.S. biologist. “We’ve lost a unique animal. There is no h4.of recovery.”
The Chinese paddlefish was one of the world’s l5.freshwater fish species. It could grow to seven meters. The fish has a big n6.that earned it the nickname “elephant fish.” The Chinese paddlefish was an a7.species. It first appeared in the Jurassic period(侏罗纪时期). After existing for 200 million years, the species finally went extinct because of human a8..
Scientists warn that many freshwater fish species in the Yangtze River are in d9.. The Chinese paddlefish was only the first to disappear. Fortunately, China has taken a10.. In January, the country started a ten-year fishing ban on the Yangtze River.
They hang from trees. They float in rivers and oceans. They are piled up in landfills(垃圾填埋场). Our frequent use of plastic products has, for many years, been a leading cause of serious environmental problems in the world. Last month, China drew up new guidelines(指导方针) aiming to bring plastic pollution under control across the country in five years’ time.
According to the new guidelines, the ban(禁令) on the use of non-biodegradable(不可生物降解的) plastic bags will have been applied to cities including Beijing and Shanghai by the end of this year. Other sources of plastic garbage will have been banned in these cities by the end of 2022. And that rule will have extended nationwide by late 2025.
Fortunately, China will not start from zero. Late last year, the country announced a national standard for biodegradable plastic shopping bags. It is technologically prepared for their production. Some regions have gained valuable experience that others can learn from. For example, Jilin province is leading the way by providing eco-friendly(环保的) shopping bags in some local supermarkets.
Given the size of China’s consumer market, one main obstacle(障碍) is the large number of plastic items that are being used by restaurants and e-commerce(电子商务) platforms. It’s estimated that nearly 25 billion plastic bags were used for deliveries in 2018. Most of them were rarely reused.
However, most Chinese people welcomed the government’s effort to reduce the use of plastics. “Beijing is thinking about the problem seriously,” said Tang Damin, a member of Greenpeace East Asia in Beijing. He added that the policy could be far more effective(有效) by using incentives(激励) such as a deposit(押金) return program on plastic products.
