今年8月起，海南分阶段、分区域、分重点在全省党政机关事业单位、国企、学校、旅游景区、大型商超、医院等重点行业场所开展“禁塑”试点工作。

▌培育发展替代品全产业链

Hainan has also been cultivating and developing eco-friendly substitutes for non-degradable plastic products. It is expected to form a complete industrial chain of fully biodegradable materials and products between 2022 and 2023.
海南省一直在培育发展不可降解塑料产品的环保替代产品，将于2022年至2023年前后形成全生物降解材料及制品完整产业链。

Currently, seven enterprises in the province are able to produce fully biodegradable plastics. By year-end, their production capacity of biodegradable plastic films and bags is set to hit 32,000 tons a year, while that of tableware would reach 11,000 tons a year.
目前已有7家省内企业具备全生物降解塑料制品生产能力，年底可形成膜袋类产能3.2万吨/年，餐饮具产能约1.1万吨/年。

今年1月，我国发布《关于进一步加强塑料污染治理的意见》，提出到2025年，塑料制品生产、流通、消费和回收处置等环节的管理制度基本建立（establish a complete plastics management system），多元共治体系基本形成，替代产品开发应用水平进一步提升（make progress in the development of substitute products），重点城市塑料垃圾填埋量大幅降低（significantly reduce the amount of plastic waste going to landfills），塑料污染得到有效控制（bring plastic pollution under effective control）。
