“为食物垃圾买单” 韩国在行动

In a bid to control the nation's growing problem with food wastage, the South Korean government has started a unique initiative – "Pay as You Trash". Residents are required to separate their food waste from the rest of their trash and dump it separately in a centralised bin. And in order to access the bin, they actually need to pay by the kilo!

为控制国内不断加重的食物浪费问题，韩国政府推出了一项特别举措——“为食物垃圾买单”。民众需要单独归类食物垃圾并倾倒在集中垃圾箱里。但要想打开垃圾箱，他们得按重量交费！

As of now, the South Korean government has three methods in place to charge citizens for the food thrown away. One is through an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) card – when users tap this card – embedded with their personal tag – over a specially designed food waste bin, the lid will open, allowing them to dump their waste. This waste is automatically weighed and recorded in the user's account. The user needs to settle this bill on a monthly basis. Each RFID bin costs 1.7 million won ($1,500) and can cater to 60 households.

截至目前，韩国政府已推出三种垃圾收费方式。第一种，通过无线射频识别（RFID）卡缴费——当使用者将载有个人信息的识别卡置于专用食物垃圾箱上方时，箱盖会感应开启，此时使用者可将垃圾投入箱中。用户倒入的垃圾将被自动称量并记录在账号中，并按月结清费用。每个RFID垃圾箱价值170万韩元（约合1500美元），可供60户家庭使用。
