申城积极推行垃圾分类管理，鼓励更多市民参与   2016-05-10

 

THE authorities are considering tougher measures for managing domestic garbage amid doubts over the effectiveness of “green account” incentives put in place to encourage city residents to sort their waste.

Shanghai Greenery and Public Sanitation Bureau is cooperating with the city's legislative body on the preparation of draft regulations to strengthen domestic garbage management, according to the bureau's response to a proposal by a legislative deputy.

Coercive measures, including fines and waste fees, are being considered, officials said, adding that the preparation work is still in the initial stages.
