    More efforts should be made to stop enterprises over-packaging their food products, says an article in the Guangming Daily. An excerpt follows:
    The State Administration for Industry and Commerce recently issued a directive calling for its local agencies to investigate the problem of over-packaged food products.
    Over-packaging is an environmentally unfriendly practice. It is estimated that, of the 3 million tons of refuse Beijing churns out every year, commodity packaging makes up about 830, 000 tons, of which 600, 000 tons is unnecessary.
    Over-packaging also leads to a huge waste of resources. For example, China produces about 1. 2 billion shirts annually, which consumes about 240, 000 tons of paper for packaging boxes. It takes 1. 68 million trees of a bowl-sized diameter to produce this amount of paper.
    As the world’s most populous country, China cannot afford to waste resources so wantonly.

答案 On Excessive Packaging In recent years, with the improvement of living standard, commodities with excessive packaging have poured into the markets and stores, such as luxurious moon cakes and traditional Chinese rice-pudding. Such a prevailing phenomenon leads to so serious waste that it has aroused people’ s wide concern and strong criticism. Many reasons may account for excessive packaging. To begin with, an increasing number of companies and stores hold the idea that fancy packaging may attract potential customers and stimulate their purchasing desire, thus earning more profits. In addition, many customers have a wrong notion that the more delicate the package looks, the better quality the commodity may be, which encourages the evil trend of excessive packaging. What’ s more, the prevailing phenomenon is partly due to the lack of related laws and regulations and strict enforcement of them. In my opinion, excessive packaging will not only waste the precious resources, but also lay heavier burden on the environment. To prevent this phenomenon from worsening, it is high time that we raised people’ s awareness of rational consumption and saving resources.
