Sometimes what everyone may need is a reminder, you and I, the details make a good life. If we see these (non-environmentally friendly) behaviors, then no amount of advocacy can be implemented.

I didn't live alone for a long time, when I was at home, a lot of garbage sorting was influenced by my parents, my parents were very frugal people, my family has a lot of decades old objects, such as more than twenty years of pots, more than ten years of cups and dishes, some older than me. This has a great impact on me, things have feelings after a long time, and I am reluctant to throw them away.
Sometimes during shopping festivals I stock up on a lot of daily necessities such as laundry detergent shampoo, which I share with my friends. For second-hand items that are really not needed, I generally send friends, and some I will pack and send to children in the mountains with my friends, I have a WeChat group with my friends, that is, contact people in the mountains to donate materials, and often see people in the group sending things, which seem to me to be very warm and correct measures.
When I was a child, I went out to dinner with my mother, and she always brought her own napkins and used as much as she wanted. Many restaurants charge for paper towels, but in fact, opening a new box can not be used up, but it is a waste. At the beginning of work to go to the crew to shoot, I used a plastic lunch box with everyone, and then heated up, the smell often made me feel poisoned, plus disposable chopsticks and mouth, I changed to my own iron tableware. I now go out with a thermos cup, because I have to make tea in the winter when I am old, and my health is also very relieving.
A long time ago, I have noticed some slogans of the state for garbage disposal, some of which directly write "no littering", but now there are many very cute slogans, such as "Don't step on me, I am in pain" on the lawn; the garbage bin will have "Although I am small, but I have great significance"; about garbage classification, there will be "today is a point, tomorrow is ten points"; for some harmful garbage will write "give the battery a safe home, give yourself a clean world", the role of these slogans is obvious, It not only serves as a reminder, but also makes people smile.
Now I live alone in Beijing, my family bought seven or eight garbage cans, because I can't stand the mess at home, dry garbage thrown one, kitchen leftovers throw one, some waste batteries throw one, before I raised dogs, I was directly throwing the toilet to wash away, when I went out to walk the dog with paper towels and plastic bags, picked it up casually, and became a qualified shoveler. What I hate most is dealing with wet garbage, sometimes poured into the toilet for fear of blockage, packed in plastic bags and easy to leak, and then it is to fish out the large particles of things first, and then pour the soup water into the sewer, so that it is better.
I was more impressed by Qingdao in China, and I think Qingdao is very clean. Now that the national policy has come out, everyone has done better and better, and I believe that in the future, every place will be more standardized and cleaner. When I was with my friends, if there was any environmentally friendly behavior around me, I would stop it in person. Sometimes what everyone may need is a reminder, you and I, the details make a good life. If we see these (non-environmentally friendly) behaviors, then no amount of advocacy can be implemented.
