According to the initiative, 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 over a specially designed food waste bin, the lid will open. This waste is automatically weighed and recorded in the users account. The user needs to settle this bill every month.The second billing method is through pre-paid garbage bags. These specially designed bags are priced based on the amount of space. For instance, in Seoul, a 10-liter garbage bag costs around 190 won (less than $1). Theres also a bar code management system in place, in which residents (居民) throw food waste directly into dustbins and pay for it by buying bar code stickers attached to the bin.Even before the pay-by-weight system was introduced, South Koreans were still being charged for food waste the cost was simply divided equally among the residents of each apartment block. The new system is not only fair, but is also designed to make consumers really feel the pinch of too much waste. The more food they throw out, the more they end up paying.Thanks to the initiative, residents like Seoul housewife Ms. Kwan are now adopting creative methods to avoid food waste. She makes sure to pour all the liquid out of leftover food before throwing it away. While preparing vegetables, she tries to use as much as the eatable parts as possible in order to reduce waste.32. Why does the South Korean government decide to launch the initiative?A Food waste is worsening the environment.B More and more food wastes are produced. C. People are plaining about food waste.D. People have little knowledge of saving food.33.
