There is white pollution on the earth. Can garbage be transported to outer space by reusable spacecraft?

In ancient times, human beings lived in harmony with nature, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. However, with the progress of human civilization and the development of human society, the relationship between man and nature is becoming more and more disharmonious.

The earliest appearance was that human killing led to the extinction of a large number of species. For example, a flightless dodo in Mauritius, an Indian Ocean island country, was arrested and killed within 200 years after it was first discovered by humans. However, the cause of extinction is far more than the active killing of human beings. With the development of science and technology, after industrial civilization, the demand for energy of domestic species is increasing, and the pollution produced by industrial manufacturing process destroys the natural environment on a large scale, leading to another extinction caused by the destruction of ecological environment.

With the large-scale use of plastic products in modern society, this hard-to-degrade race is causing serious white pollution. You may not think that every time you go to the supermarket to buy plastic bags for snacks, it may take hundreds of years to completely degrade under natural conditions. What you may not expect is that there are only plastic bags. 1995 China only spent 2 165438. These non-degradable plastic wastes will enter the land, oceans, mountains and forests. Only in the soil, these plastic bags will affect the absorption of water by plants, and they will exist in the soil for a long time.

In view of the increasingly serious white pollution, China implemented the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste on September 1, which gave clear guidelines for the use of disposable plastic products. By the end of this year, China will ban the use of non-degradable disposable tableware and other plastic products, and then # Why do you want to ban disposable plastic products # has become a hot topic.

And I noticed that a hot topic # China reusable test spacecraft landed successfully # appeared a few days later! So some people's brains are wide open. Since disposable white pollution is so difficult to degrade, can it be transported to outer space by increasingly mature reusable spacecraft and discarded?

This brain hole is big enough, but it is not feasible at present. The first is the launch cost of spacecraft. In fact, China's reusable spacecraft is not like the recoverable rocket of American Space Exploration Technology Company. Ours is only a spacecraft carried by a rocket, and the rocket is still disposable. Therefore, when we consider transporting garbage, we should not only consider the cost of the spacecraft, but also consider the cost of the rocket body and the fuel consumed by the rocket launch, all of which are calculated in tons. It is likely that the fuel burned is heavier than the discarded garbage? Isn't this a bit like hitting mosquitoes with a nuclear bomb? Is it worth it? You know, some rocket fuels can also cause pollution. Although there are pollution-free liquid hydrogen fuel rockets, these pollution-free fuels will also be produced in the preparation process? Pollution? what's up

Another question is, where will these rubbish be thrown the next day? If you throw it into space near the earth, it will become garbage that rotates around the earth. As more and more rubbish is thrown away, it will be a disastrous threat to human space flight in the future. If a planet is found to have fallen, it is obvious that the recyclable spacecraft can no longer be used? It can't fly to the moon, take out the garbage and fly back, can it? The cost is too high, although the moon is really a good place for white pollution.

For the current level of human space industry, it is definitely not a good idea to transport non-degradable disposable plastic waste to outer space. It is not a good choice in terms of cost and operability. Therefore, the white pollution we create can only continue to accompany us on the earth for hundreds of years. What we can do is to reduce the increase rate of these pollution from now on, find substitute products as soon as possible and end white pollution. It is a contribution to mankind to bring your own shopping bag to the supermarket and use one plastic bag less at a time.
