China - Shipment Of Rubbish Dumped

In December 1995, a shipment of waste from the US, labeled as scrap paper, arrived in Shanghai and was later transported to Qingdao. The shipment contained 40 containers of waste, including plastic bags and other household refuse, causing a significant environmental concern. This incident was the third discovery of US waste in China within a month. The report highlights the illegal practices of foreign traders and the challenges faced by China in managing waste imports. It questions the ethical standards of countries like the US, which frequently export substandard waste to China, and emphasizes the need for stricter international regulations.
