How do consumers create a healthy and safe consumption environment?

In recent years, fake and shoddy products still exist in large quantities, and acts that harm consumers' rights and interests are still common. In the face of pork and pig offal containing lean meat, poisonous rice that frequently appears, vegetables sprayed with a lot of pesticides, and decoration materials that cause serious indoor air pollution, consumers have almost reached the point where they can't bear it.

This time last year, Nanfang Daily's Dongguan Watch published a special issue on consumption, which focused on the topic of consumption and told readers the rights they should enjoy as consumers. Today, we meet with you again, respond to the call of China Consumers Association, and pay attention to the theme of "consumption and environment": to create a safe and secure consumption environment and protect the safety rights and interests of consumers; Advocate healthy and civilized consumption patterns and save resources; People live in harmony with nature and consumption protects the environment.

The reason why we attach so much importance to it is that in Dongguan, the phenomenon of wasting resources and destroying the ecological environment can still be seen everywhere. Emphasis on protecting the ecological environment and saving resources in the process of consumption is to safeguard the immediate and long-term interests of consumers.

"Consumption and environment" is not only related to the production of operators, but also to the supervision of the government, as well as to the consumption habits and lifestyles of consumers. Therefore, this special issue not only emphasizes the rights of consumers, but also puts forward the obligations of consumers.

We encourage consumers to choose green products that are pollution-free or conducive to public health when consuming. We advocate paying attention to garbage disposal in the process of consumption, which will not cause environmental pollution. We advocate consumers to change their consumption concepts, pay attention to environmental protection, save resources and energy, avoid a lot of waste of resources and environmental pollution caused by excessive consumption, correctly handle current consumption and long-term consumption, and realize sustainable consumption.

At the moment when Dongguan's economy is facing the choice and transformation of development mode and path, the consumption concept we advocate is in the same strain as Dongguan's governance concept. The year before last, Tong Xing, secretary of the municipal party committee, pointed out at the working conference on innovative development model in the whole city that it is necessary to strengthen the awareness of resource crisis of the whole people, and extensively carry out land-saving, energy-saving, water-saving and material-saving work, so that resource conservation becomes the moral standard and code of conduct of every citizen. Advocate green consumption, guide consumers to buy and use low-consumption products and services, abandon the bad habit of high consumption, oppose excessive consumption and predatory consumption, form a production mode and consumption mode conducive to saving resources, bring the consumption level and scale of the masses into a moderate and ecological sustainable consumption track, and make the consumption behavior of the whole society evolve in a direction conducive to environmental and resource protection and ecological balance.

It is our responsibility to safeguard your current and future consumer rights and interests.
