B.14 Long-Effect Mechanisms to Promote Household Waste Sorting in Shanghai

Liu Xinyu, Zhang Zhen

Abstract: In the last four decades since beginning of Reform and Opening Up, Shanghai Municipal Government has paid great efforts to promote recycling or safe disposal facilities for different wastes, and even has paid great attention to establishing and optimizing economic incentives to encourage waste sorting. Especially since 2011, Shanghai has witnessed great success in household waste sorting thanks to economic incentives and community governance mechanisms; “Green Account” is a famous economic incentive policy and is successful to some extent in the first phase. In the future, Shanghai needs to introduce more effective economic incentive policy（i. e. differentiated waste charge）, to coordinate waste sorting modes in the hands of the residents and the follow-up waste treatment facilities of different types, and to enhance institutional capacity building via community governance.

B.15 Study of Ecological Conservation Redline Management System Construction of Shanghai

Wu Meng

Abstract: The Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee put forward the strategic requirements of “delineating and strictly observing the Ecological Conservation Redline”. The “Nineteenth National Congress” report emphasizes promoting the overall protection of ecosystems, “coordinating the management of landscape and forestry lakes and grassland, and implementing the most stringent ecological environment. The Ecological Conservation Redline has become an important starting point for the construction of national ecological civilization, and has been upgraded to the national strategic to become the national ecological security line. In this context, Shanghai actively carried out the delineation of Ecological Conservation Redline, which is not only a positive response to the country's strategic requirements for promoting ecological civilization construction, accelerating the reform of the ecological civilization system, and implementing the Yangtze River Economic Belt's protection. It is also an important measure for Shanghai to maintain the bottom line of urban ecological security and achieve excellence in global urban construction. In February 2018, the State Council officially approved the Shanghai Ecological Conservation Redline Delineation Plan. The next step is to establish and improve the Ecological Conservation Redline management system and promote Shanghai ecological protection red line. We thus discussed the management system from 4 dimensions and discussed the management countermeasures from 8 aspects. In order to provide support for Shanghai to strictly adhere to the Ecological Conservation Redline and ensure ecological security.
