On June 25, Ningbo Municipal Ecological Environment Bureau released the province's first district and county-level "waste free index".

It is estimated that the top three "waste free" districts or counties in the first quarter of 2023 are Beilun District (78.74 points), Fenghua District (77.30 points) and Jiangbei District (76.75 points).

As a major reform task in the domain of ecological civilization construction, the construction of a holistic "waste free city" involves multiple aspects, including the reduction, resource utilization, and harmless treatment of urban solid waste.

Based on the research on the "waste free index" in Zhejiang Province and taking into account the actual local situation, Ningbo has formulated the "waste free index" work plan (trial) to regularly publish the index results.

It was learned at the related meeting held on June 27 that Ningbo has started the pilot work of urban physical examination, and the Zhaobao Mountain Sub-district of Zhenhai District, and Baizhang Sub-district and Zhonghe Sub-district of Yinzhou District were identified as the pilot areas. 39 communities in the pilot areas will undergo the urban physical examination.

A city is an “organism” that, like the human body, has meridians, pulses, and textures. Various “urban diseases” may occur during the growth process. Regular physical examinations are required to identify diseases, diagnose the cause, prescribe medication, and solve problems and conflicts through comprehensive measures. This aims to achieve “prevention and treatment of existing diseases”, and promote the improvement of urban quality as well as the safe and orderly operation of the city. Urban physical examination is an important prerequisite and foundation for implementing urban renewal actions.

Recently, the first batch of sea-freight outbound parcels that cross customs areas in Zhejiang Province were loaded onto mail trucks from Yiwu and arrived at Ningbo International Mail Exchange Center. This batch of cross-border e-commerce postal parcels will be loaded into containers along with local postal parcels from Ningbo to be transported to Beilun Port Area, before being transported abroad by container liners.
