谈环保餐具对发泡塑料餐具的替代

介绍了环保餐具的类型及其优势和缺点，对就环保餐具替代一次性发泡塑料餐具，从管理、生产流通、消费等方面，提出了看法和建议。     

卷首语

随着一次性包装品在日常生活中的广泛使用,白色污染已成为制约人类生存与发展的社会公害。大量的生产和使用不可降解的泡沫塑料餐饮具,不仅造成资源浪费,而且严重污染了环境。1999年,国家经贸委明确提出到2000年底前全面禁止生产销售和使用一次性发泡塑料餐饮具,代之以可降解的新型环保餐具。在这样的形势下,许多有识之士纷纷致力于环保餐具的开发和研究。这是我国在一次性包装餐饮具领域中的一次革命。可以相信,经过这场革命,环保餐具将遍及茫茫华夏的城镇和乡村。为使广大读者全面认识和了解可降解餐饮具,值此“六·五”世界环境日前夕,     

是义举也是智举

有消息说,近一个月来,由于非典的传染性影响了许多餐饮企业的经济效益,同时也改变了很多人的卫生习惯和餐饮观念。为了防止病从口入,不少单位纷纷要求使用质量好的一次性环保餐饮具,因此出现了难得的环保餐具供不应求的局面,而一些价格便宜、质量差的劣质环保餐具正在失去市场。“祸兮福所倚”。抗击非典的严峻挑战,给了环保餐饮具一个难得的施展本事的机会。卫生部门和医院不仅同意接受一次性环保餐饮具,而且感谢这个义举来得及时,这表明环保餐具的优势在一个特殊的时刻,以一种特殊的方式被认可。以此为契机,更多的人将有机会了解环保餐具,信赖环保餐具。从参与的企业

北京环保餐具联合组织4月份对北京市一次性餐具市场进行了抽查,产品合格率仅为33%。本次抽查共抽取了18家不同类型的产品送检,其中塑料类17家(合格6家),纸浆模塑类1家(不合格),总的合格率为33%;送检产品在北京地区的市场占有率达到80%以上,抽查样品基本覆盖北京市场上销售的各种餐具品牌。这次主要抽查的地点有大钟寺农贸市场、金五星批发市场风味小吃城、北京万通小商品批发城五层美食城、阜成门华联超市以及北京鱼米楚乡酒家等。在检查中发现,农贸市场的一次性餐具合格率较低,只有约20%,而超市、饭店等     

全国环保餐具产品检测信息

一次性可降解餐具研究开发已有10多年历史,但一直无章可循,国家级产品质量标准不健全甚至空白,检测引用标准非常混乱,检测报告五花八门,有些企业不明白,有些检测单位装糊涂,加上质量监督不严,企业为了降低成本,偷工减料,造成送检合格率高,而实际销售产品合格率低下的混乱局面。现在已有了新型环保餐具国家正式标准 GB18006.1—1999和 GB/T18006.2—1999以及环境产品技术要求 HBC1—2001(北京凯发环保中心发行,两套标准共40元),全面科学检测工作已经展开,北京     

环保餐具企业要坚持(环保话题)

一只环保餐盒,不值几个钱,可谓“小”产品,但就是这样一个小产品,却引来了一个“大喜”场面。近一个月来,由于“非典”的影响,许多餐饮企业的经济效益下滑,然而却改变了很多人的卫生习惯和餐饮观念。为了防止病从口入,不少单位纷纷要求使用质量好的一次性环保餐饮具,因此出现了环保餐具供不应求的大好局面,一些环保餐具企业始终处于超饱和生产状态。与此同时,价格便宜质量差的劣质环保餐具失去了市场。餐盒,盖因其“小”,值不了几个钱,使用起来极其随意,管它是不是环保餐具,管它会不会对环境造成污染,随手而丢却没有什么觉察。所以,你一只,我一只,众“手”难掩,最终从“小”成“大”,以致造     

Catalysts for change: the emerging role of participatory research in land management

Land management is a complex process which involves the interaction of biophysical and social variables. New demands are being placed on biophysical researchers working in land management to communicate more effectively with the public and to involve the public in the research process. The catalysts for change in the practice of land management research are clearly outlined with respect to pressures from new government policies, from institutions funding research, from communities in which the research is occurring and from within the academic environment itself. In order to meet these new demands, collaborative efforts – incorporating different academic disciplines and between researchers and communities – must occur. Traditional scientific approaches can benefit from the incorporation of techniques and approaches used within participatory research. The concept of participation and its relevance to biophysical research in land management is discussed, as well as the key characteristics of participatory research. Examples, predominantly from Australia, are provided; however the global scope of the changes is highlighted.It is increasingly recognized that agriculture is a complex social process, not simply a complex, diverse and risky technical activity. This implies new theoretical as well as methodological challenges..(present author's emphasis) (Scoones and Thompson, 1994, p. 5).

Sustainable development and the community: Lessons from the KASHA project,botswana

Summary This paper focuses on the characteristics of sustainable development as manifested in localized contexts and situations. It examines the KASHA project in Botswana, and suggests an important conceptual link between the community and sustainable development. To convey the message that there is hope and that "Sustainable Development" is possible, the paper suggests the need to document, share, describe and talk about successful programmes like KASHA.Dr Stephen Ameyaw is currently Assistant Professor of Planning in the Faculty of Environmental Design, University of Calgary. His research interests are focused on women and development, community development, regional planning, policy and institutional development. He has conducted research in Canada, Ghana and Botswana.     

Environmental gradients in northwest freshwater wetlands

Wetland environmental characteristics are examined to determine their spatial and temporal relationships. Two very different Oregon freshwater wetlands provided a range of wetland types. Results are evaluated to determine the possible use of environmental characteristics in defining wetlands and their boundaries. Representative physical, hydrological, and edaphic properties were periodically measured in microplots along upland/wetland transects. A multivariate approach is stressed in the data analysis; correlation, cluster analysis, and principal components analyses were used. The results indicate the environmental characteristics change in a quantifiable manner both spatially and temporally. The controlling mechanism is moisture, spatially in terms of the upland/wetland transect and temporally with respect to seasonal response. These changes do not correlate well with vegetation. Several hypotheses are offered as an explanation. Correlation within environmental characteristics is variable but definite patterns are discernible. These data suggest both single and combinations of environmental characteristics that could serve as keys in wetland identification and boundary determination. However, before extensive use is made of this information additional long-term monitoring of wetland environmental characteristics will be required.     

Computer-aided classification of forest cover types from small scale aerial photography

The US National Park Service must map forest cover types over extensive areas in order to fulfill its goal of maintaining or reconstructing presettlement vegetation within national parks and monuments. Furthermore, such cover type maps must be updated on a regular basis to document vegetation changes. Computer-aided classification of small scale aerial photography is a promising technique for generating forest cover type maps efficiently and inexpensively. In this study, seven cover types were classified with an overall accuracy of 62 percent from a reproduction of a 1120,000 color infrared transparency of a conifer-hardwood forest. The results were encouraging, given the degraded quality of the photograph and the fact that features were not centered, as well as the lack of information on lens vignetting characteristics to make corrections. Suggestions are made for resolving these problems in future research and applications. In addition, it is hypothesized that the overall accuracy is artificially low because the computer-aided classification more accurately portrayed the intermixing of cover types than the hand-drawn maps to which it was compared.

Energy consumption and conservation psychology: A review and conceptual analysis

The burgeoning literature devoted to the psychology of energy consumption is categorized by specific methodological approach, is critically reviewed, and is conceptually analyzed. Three main categories of energy research are discerned, these categories corresponding to the traditional methodological typology of the survey study, the field experiment, and the laboratory investigation. For each of these major approaches, several subcategories and special topic areas are noted and discussed. The intention of these conceptual analyses is to stimulate research interest and to provide directions for future research activities. The review concludes with the encouraging observation that several directions can be generalized from the literature. More importantly, these generalizations are corroborated across experiments conducted within each major methodological approach. The importance of behavioral approaches to energy issues and the necessity for additional governmental support for these activities is also emphasized.     

Development and testing a diagnostic capacity tool for improving socio-ecological system governance

The capacity to sustainably govern complex socio-ecological systems (SES) has been identified as a necessary but daunting task by SES scholars, resource stewards and stakeholders. This research sought to inform the question: What are determinant capacities and functional linkages that can be incorporated into diagnostic tools for analysts seeking to improve sustainable socio-economic system SES governance? Literature was used to identify and translate determinant capacities and functional linkages into a quantifiable metric of governance quality. The tool was developed from ecological, business, governance and decision science literature. This tool recognizes the dynamic and systemic linkages between the resources and the social systems that use and govern them for improving systems thinking and SES outcomes. The tool was tested to determine its ability to capture perceived characteristics of governance quality and problem management using Michigan’s cleanup and redevelopment program. The results of this research indicated that the exploratory tool was reliable and valid. This research contributes to the evolving body of SES frameworks, specifically the study of individual and organizational capacities for improved SES outcomes. The implications of this research suggest participatory network-based governance with higher levels of resource exchange, in the form of interdependency, trust, diplomacy and reciprocity, aligns with practitioners’ perceptions of improved program performance. Further, while some capacities and related findings of this research may be context specific, concepts associated with the development and testing of this diagnostic tool, such as the use of systems thinking, participatory network-based governance, and related competencies, may have more universal application.     

Environmental damage — environmental expenditure 2: Statistical evidence on the Federal Republic of Germany

Summary In part one of this paper (The Environmentalist,1990, pp.301–309) it was shown that conventional economic accounting does not reveal the actual damage to the natural environment, although an ever-increasing share of the Gross National Product is being spent for environmental protection activities. In this, part two of the paper, on the basis of acceptable conventions, the results of an empiric research on defensive expenditures in the GNP are presented, again taking the Federal Republic of Germany as an example. The authors would like to see more research of this type in order to understand better the environmental impacts and the structural deficiencies of modern industrial society. Dr Christian Leipert and Professor Udo E. Simonis have contributed frequently toThe Environmentalist (see 1989, pp.171–183; 1990, pp.25–38; 1990, pp.301–309). Dr Leipert is research fellow, Dr Simonis is research professor at the environmental policy unit of the Science Center Berlin.     

Modelling environmental concern: Theory and application

Summary Human concern for the quality and protection of the natural environment forms the basis of successful environmental conservation activities. The social sciences have considered this concern as an area of research activity. In the present paper environmental concern research is considered and emphasis is placed upon studies which have depicted it in multiple dimensions. The results are then presented from research which has attempted to ask What are the dimensions of this concern? These findings suggest that individuals perceive different environmental issues differentially using multiple concurrent dimensions of evaluation. In general, issues are ascribed to a series of different categories which embody evaluations of; type (or referent) of issue, issue scale, environmental importance and personal importance of the issue.Dr Paul Hackett was until recently a staff member in the Consumer Research Unit of the Department of commerce at the University of Birmingham Business School.
