Following a vote by lawmakers Wednesday, China's legislature approved the amended version of the Law on the Promotion of Clean Production, which stresses efforts to cut down on excessive packaging.
全国人大常委会通过《清洁生产促进法》修正案,强调要努力减少过度包装。
过度包装不仅造成resource-wasting(浪费资源)、pollute the environment(污染环境),而且导致commodity price(商品价格)虚高,损害consumer benefit(消费者利益),扰乱market order(市场秩序),助长奢侈腐败现象。
4. 研发“空气监测设备”air monitoring equipment
全国政协委员、国家环保部下属的中国环境监测总站研究员温香彩3日表示,目前国内现用的PM2.5监测设备和技术主要是依赖进口,中国应尽快加强相关技术设备的研发,形成具有自主知识产权的先进环境空气监测技术方法体系和环境空气质量评价技术方法体系。
China should speed up the research and development on air monitoring equipment in line with the rising demand after the country puts in place stricter air quality standards. The equipment and technologies that China is using to monitor PM2.5 -- fine particles 2.5 microns or less in diameter -- are mainly from other countries.
