Legal regulation of green packaging in the United States
as early as the 1960s, the United States has noticed the harm of packaging waste. To this end, some state governments began to take legal measures to forcibly recycle these wastes. As the state government came forward, the situation gradually eased, and a protection campaign entitled "protecting the beauty of the United States" was launched. In 1970, various countries in the world formulated corresponding plans in the field of new materials. In, the U.S. government formulated a resource recovery system. By the end of 1980s, because the federal government could not impose opinions on the state governments on the issue of packaging waste, they took more active measures and formulated general policies. Members of Congress have made a plan for some realities, including reducing the source of packaging, recycling, recycling and incineration, which states have responded. In 1993, the California government specially formulated the "beverage container ransom system", which stipulates that all hard plastic containers must be recycled in accordance with the requirements of reducing the consumption of raw materials by 10% or containing 25% recyclable substances proposed in 1991. North Carolina's 1988 law stipulates that by 1997, expanded production of polystyrene will not be allowed if food packaging materials cannot contain 25% recyclable substances. The recommendation of Connecticut h.b51917 stipulates that the use of non recyclable substances in consumer goods packaging has been prohibited since 1995. New York a.b1839 proposed to prohibit the sale and use of packaging materials made of polystyrene foamed plastic glue. Representatives of the Florida preparatory meeting listened to and commented on the work report of the Secretariat of the special committee. The state government of Rita actively promoted the "waste treatment pre charge law" (hereinafter referred to as AFD), and let consumers who choose goods freely bear the cost of processing packaging waste. In order to encourage packaging container manufacturers to recycle and support the implementation of the law, the AFD law stipulates that as long as a certain level of recycling is reached, they can apply for exemption from waste tax, For example, according to various materials published by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (DEP) every year, containers with a recovery rate of more than 50% can be exempted from pre charging, so as to encourage all producers to ensure that at least half of their products can be recycled
