Barter for things and let idle items "live"
Send you a "minus" word little red flower, reduce the amount and share it together!
Rag dolls, space models, handicrafts... Last Saturday, the "Love Kids Market" officially "opened". Huang Lixin, deputy director of the Municipal Urban Management and Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau, came to the "Public Welfare Bazaar" booth and took the lead in scanning the code to participate in the charity sale of idle items, practicing a green and low-carbon lifestyle while caring for the healthy growth of young people in the city.
There are 30 stalls on site, including "barter", "charity sale", "old things recycling", "whimsical ideas (old things transformation)" and "handmade DIY". More than 60 "stall owners" in the market displayed their beloved toys, books they had read, handicrafts and other handicrafts on their stalls for citizens to "search for treasures" on the spot. In the creative handmade DIY area, "environmental protection experts" use their imagination to transform with old materials, and after cutting, splicing and coloring, a spare old garment and a discarded packaging box can be transformed under their skillful hands.
"Simple and moderate, green and low-carbon" is a green, environmentally friendly, civilized and healthy lifestyle. With the increase in the volume of goods at the scene, many students slowly changed from being overwhelmed at the beginning to actively shouting. Many parents said that through one or more exchanges, children can recycle idle items, not only in exchange for items they are satisfied with, but also invisibly contribute to garbage reduction and charity charity.
At the event site, you can also scan the QR code of the "Flower Gathering Action", browse the map of the market activity in each district online, reduce the amount of learning to light up the little red flowers, and win electronic vouchers such as Starbucks, KFC, and Pizza Hut, forming an effective online and offline linkage.

The second anniversary of the implementation of the Regulations
Convey the concept of civilization, and reduce the source to achieve practical results
The "Shenzhen Municipal Regulations on the Classification and Management of Domestic Waste" has been implemented for the second anniversary in September 2022, and the publicity of waste classification and reduction has continued to be carried out, and the concept of waste classification and reduction has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In order to increase citizens' participation in waste classification and reduction, Shenzhen also launched a touring exhibition of the results of the second anniversary of the Regulations. These achievements are the result of the joint efforts of the citizens of Shenzhen. In the past two years, more and more households and communities that have done a good job in garbage classification have insisted on garbage classification, and the participation rate and classification accuracy rate have become higher and higher. Despite the impact of the epidemic, many residents still do not forget to do a good job of garbage sorting every day.
By the end of August, Shenzhen's four types of waste had achieved "three increases and one decrease", with the recycling of recyclables increasing by 42.4%, the recycling of hazardous waste by 21.1%, the recycling of kitchen waste by 172.6%, the disposal of other waste decreased by 11.7%, and the recycling rate and resource utilization rate of domestic waste reached 48.1% and 87.7% respectively, ranking among the top in the country. Among them, the classification rate of food waste is a key indicator for evaluating waste classification, and despite the impact of the epidemic, the classification rate of food waste in Shenzhen still reached 25.1%, exceeding the 20% standard line stipulated by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. The "three increases and one decrease" is even greater, and the garbage classification work has achieved obvious results.
The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Urban Management and Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau said that next, all districts (new districts) in the city will closely focus on the theme of "changing to enjoy new fashion", mobilize communities, parks, campuses, shopping streets (scenic spots) and other places in the jurisdiction to actively participate in the garbage reduction day publicity activities, do a good job of garbage classification from the source reduction, and also hope that everyone will participate in garbage reduction together to create a green, low-carbon and civilized lifestyle.
