The choice of degradable fabrics is based on environmental protection and sustainable development considerations, for the following main reasons:
1. Negative impact on the environment: Traditional fabrics are often made of chemical synthetic fibers or plastics, which are difficult to degrade after the end of their life cycle and will accumulate in soil and water, causing pollution and harm to the ecosystem. Biodegradable fabrics can be naturally degraded by microorganisms, enzymes, etc. under certain conditions, reducing the negative impact on the environment and reducing the degree of ecological damage.
2. Save limited resources: The production of most traditional fabrics requires a large amount of energy and chemical raw materials, such as oil, coal, etc., and these resources are limited. of. Biodegradable fabrics are usually made of natural or renewable materials, which reduces dependence on limited resources and contributes to sustainable development.
3. Promote circular economy: Biodegradable fabrics can be used as part of renewable resources and can be returned to the natural cycle through mixing or composting with other biomass waste. . They can be broken down into organic matter and become a source of fertilizer or energy, allowing for maximum resource utilization and recycling.
4. Promote green consumption awareness: Choosing degradable fabrics can help promote the concept of green consumption and encourage people to pay more attention to the environment and sustainability. People’s recognition and use of degradable fabrics can help reduce the demand for traditional fabrics, prompt more manufacturers and consumers to choose more environmentally friendly products, and thus promote the development of the entire industry in a more sustainable direction.
5. Comply with laws, regulations and industry standards: As environmental problems become increasingly serious, governments and international organizations have formulated relevant laws, regulations and industry standards. Restrict and regulate the use of non-biodegradable fabrics. Choosing degradable fabrics meets environmental requirements, helps companies comply with relevant regulations, and reduces environmental risks and legal liabilities.
In short, choosing degradable fabrics is to reduce the negative impact on the environment, save limited resources, promote a circular economy, cultivate green consumption awareness, and comply with laws and regulations and industry standards. These reasons make degradable fabrics an important development direction in the future, which has positive significance for achieving sustainable development.
