How to make paper packaging more environmentally friendly instead of plastic product packaging

In recent years, various plastic pollution problems have been frequently reported. Animals have swallowed plastic waste and died. The marine environment is full of non-degradable plastic waste. There is even news that plastic particles have been found in the human body. More and more people are aware of the dangers of plastic pollution.

Therefore, many countries around the world are resisting the use of plastic bags, and advocate the introduction of more environmentally friendly alternatives to replace this kind of plastic products that use less than a few minutes but take at least hundreds of years to degrade. In the past two years, eco-degradable plastics have been mentioned more frequently in various plastic ban policies. Some people are confused about this. In terms of degradability, isn't paper packaging easier to degrade and more environmentally friendly?

Here we have to mention a concept "product life cycle". When we discuss whether a product is environmentally friendly, we do not just look at whether it will harm the environment after it is discarded, but follow the entire life cycle of the product, including the raw materials. Whether there will be pollution from mining, manufacturing, transportation, distribution, and use to the final disposal stage. From the perspective of the final abandonment stage, paper packaging does have a great advantage in terms of degradability, but the destruction of forest trees in the raw material mining stage, manufacturing, and the three wastes in the recycling and reproduction stage have always been the key observation objects of environmental pollution. If it is replaced in proportion to the previous market demand for plastics, the pollution of paper packaging will even far exceed the pollution of ordinary plastics.
