In March this year, the United Nations passed a landmark resolution to end plastic pollution by 2024.
Prior to this, various countries have successively issued relevant plastic prohibition and restriction policies. According to the statistics of the International Energy Agency (IEA), in the past five years, more than 60 countries have implemented prohibitions or taxes on disposable plastics, and major economies such as the EU, the United States and China have upgraded the "plastic restriction order" to "plastic prohibition order".
Under the plastic ban, the catering takeout industry was the first to bear the brunt. McDonald's, Starbucks, Xicha and others had previously said that they would no longer provide disposable plastic straws, fuelling the market for green and environmentally friendly tableware.
