A shared maritime future: China's efforts in advancing marine ecology

Will a plastic bottle drifting in the sea become waste that endangers marine life, or will it become a recycled resource?

A Chinese environmental initiative named the Blue Circle has an answer to this question. Using blockchain technology and the Internet of Things (IoT), the initiative comprehensively monitors the entire life cycle of plastic pollution, encompassing collection, regeneration, re-manufacturing and re-sale.

Last October, the UN Environment Programme honored the initiative with the 2023 Champions of the Earth award for its innovative marine plastic treatment technology.

Based on the harmonious coexistence of humans and nature, China protects marine biodiversity, as well as develops and utilizes marine resources in an orderly manner.
