Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide people with things like disposable ( 一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and so on. Many people like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing no longer provide people with these disposables. They want to ask people to use fewer disposable things.
Lots of disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment. Do you know one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing，people throw away about 19000000 kg of plastic bags and 1320000 kg of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down(腐烂). So the less plastic we throw out, the better. Wherever you travel，bring your own things and use them again and again.
