SAU1 Final post: Excessive Packaging

   
<the picture show you how many package you would cost if you buy two fish>
     Beautiful packaging, is conducive to the sale of goods. Proper packaging is necessary. However, many products excessive packaging nowadays. The seller exaggerates the function of packaging, misleading consumer attitudes, injuring the interests of consumers and society. Over-packaging consumes excessive resources, making the society bear the excessive cost of packaging.
     Here's an example by myself, I bought many things on "Taobao" this month, which is a online shopping center in China. I bought goods from many different sellers. Because Taobao's goods often free shipping, even you just buy a pen or a T-shirt. I finally bought these products from nearly thirty sellers. When it came to Taiwan, I received two big burlap bags, and insides these bags, there was also twenty-seven cartons. Each carton might just have one skirt, one bag or few stationary. Not to mention how many plastic bags of goods are there. I list some drawback of excessive packaging in the following paragraphs, and let's go ahead and read.
     Excessive packaging bring a lot of adverse effects. First, it wastes a lot of resources. Raw materials such as paper, rubber, glass, steel, plastic, wood, oil, steel and other raw materials are scarce resources in our country. If it is used in a large number of excessive packaging without corresponding recycling, it will cause a lot of waste.
     Second,it would pollute the environment. Consumers discarded a large number of packaging waste, increasing the pollution of the environment. In China, about 182,000 tons of corrugated cardboard are wasted due to packaging every year, which is equivalent to an annual cut of 1,547 hectares of forest.
    The last point is it would undermine social interests. Costumers need to pay more money to buy these excessive package no matter they need or not. It also cost fierce unfair competition in the market. Companies pay higher cost to get more beautiful products. Excessive packaging has formed a luxurious, exaggerated social atmosphere.This is not conducive to build a conservation-oriented society.
     Excessive packaging waste of natural resources, polluting our environment, endangering the interests of society. We should reject this phenomenon. In order to avoid excessive packaging, I think first of all we should raise our awareness and change our opinion. Excessive packaging is just selling vanity, not courtesy. Building a conservation-oriented society. Everyone have a responsibility to change the attitude. No matter you are costumer, company or worker. We are all human living on the earth. We should protect our planet together and make our society better.

SAU1 Blog post 5: Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain

     Cryptocurrencies  and blockchain are the newest technology system. They don't need a big amount of space to store the data and don't need another control or supervise them. Thus,the block chain skill can decline bank or economics system's mistake. It also can make the trade speed faster and safer.
     Blochchain also can use on traceable products,the resourse of products, the process of products can all be seen. We can clearly know what we eat or buy, and how these products make. Cryptocurrencies is a kind of virtual currency,you can buy service or products on the specific virtual space.It's not a real coin but can do same thing like coin. Cryptocurrencies is safer because it uses cryptography to secure its transactions.
     A good example is bitcoin, which is the highest market value of cryptocurrenciesy now. you can pay diractly to others no need to through the bank. Many people use bitcoin to earn money. However, I don't think it's a good trading currency. Bitcoin is not stable, the value always change dramatic. I would think it's a stock or venture capital. Using the new trading system still need to be careful.
