Europe has launched a "plastic reduction" campaign in recent years. The European Executive Committee announced in January this year that all plastic packaging in Europe must be recyclable and reduce the use of disposable plastic products by 2030, and invested 100million euros in research funds to promote innovation

the British royal family also joined the "plastic reduction" action. Earlier this year, the royal family announced that the meeting rooms and cafes of the royal family's real estate had replaced plastic bottles with glass bottles, and that food packaging bags and plastic straws that could not be biodegradable were also banned. Royal employees drink water with glasses during meetings. The cafes open to the public do not provide plastic straws. The staff canteen will also use porcelain plates, glasses and recyclable paper cups, and take out food will use biodegradable packaging

in the private sector, many restaurants also implement "plastic reduction". According to the estimates of relevant organizations, the UK uses 8.5 billion straws every year, or more than 23million extruders every day, and the export amount gradually picks up. McDonald's in Britain alone uses about 1.8 million straws a day

some McDonald's branches in the UK began a trial program in April, using biodegradable materials to replace plastic straws, but consumers must take the initiative to request paper straws

McDonald's plan to ban plastic straws is not yet on the road in other branches of the full explanation of the application scope of the downpull tester at this stage, but the branches in the United States, France and Norway will implement the trial plan
