Students can exchange for this kind of environmentally friendly paper and pencils with the wastes in daily life, such as waste newspapers, old books, mineral water bottles, etc., which not only realizes the use of waste and saves resources, but also improves the students' environmental awareness. A few days ago, the reporter saw this kind of forum designated environmentally friendly pencils at the Ninth China Economic Forum. From the appearance of the stationery brand, it is the same size as an ordinary pencil, except that there is no cover film and spray paint on the pen, but more or less irregular text. Zhang Mingbo, general manager of Harbin Qilai Environmental Technology Development Co., Ltd., a pencil manufacturer, told reporters that the innovation of environmentally friendly pencils lies in the use of waste newspapers instead of wood. China is the world's largest producer and exporter of pencils, and at least 7,000 hectares of trees fall for this purpose every year. Zhang Mingbo calculated an account for the reporter: 1 ton of waste newspapers can produce 180,000 environmentally friendly pencils, which is equivalent to the consumption of 6 cubic meters of wood to make wooden pencils. Stationery brands can also save paper for secondary consumption in the recycling process. Of 100 cubic meters of water, 600 kWh of electricity, 1.2 tons of coal and 500 kilograms of chemical raw materials. Since its launch last year, this eco-friendly pencil has been welcomed by primary school students in Harbin. Zhang Mingbo said that since last year, they have carried out an activity of exchanging waste for environmentally friendly pencils on the Harbin Primary School campus. Students can use their daily waste, such as waste newspapers, old books, mineral water bottles and other stationery brands to exchange for environmentally friendly pencils for free. . Since the launch of the event, the response has been strong. At present, environmentally friendly pencils have entered many primary school campuses in the city, especially in more than 80% of the primary schools in Nangang District. Environmental experts believe that the exchange of environmentally friendly pencils will help children learn to use waste and separate garbage, which will not only improve personal environmental awareness, but will also further promote the family's awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection.
