[Start Briefing] I recycled coffee grounds... Songpa-gu District's garbage has decreased by 9.5%.

On Tuesday, November 19th, the start briefing will begin.

First, the Dong-A Ilbo.The last negotiations for the

'International Plastic Convention' will be held in Busan from the 25th. In the negotiations so far, there has been no significant result due to the complex intertwined interests of each country. The gap between the plastic consumer and the producer is still tight. The main issue is whether to reduce the raw material of plastic, 'polymer'. The environmental monitoring ship of the international environmental group Greenpeace has entered Busan Port for the first time in eight years. More than 4,000 people, including delegations from 170 countries around the world, including Greenpeace, will visit Busan. Many of these people will be discussing whether to view plastic production as polymer production or plastic production as completion. Plastic consumer countries such as Korea and the EU insist on reducing polymer production first. On the other hand, oil-producing countries or countries with developed petrochemical industries have different positions. Rather than production regulation, we should be more focused on recycling and waste management. Regarding the harmfulness of plastic, the opinions of the producing and consuming countries are different. Depending on the industry, there is a clear difference in opinions of companies. Even if the agreement is signed this time, the opinions of developed and developing countries are divided over how to raise funds. Experts believe that once this agreement is concluded, there is a high possibility that only the big direction will be set and the details will be gradually supplemented. Let's watch with interest whether the Busan Convention, which is comparable to the Kyoto Protocol, can be born.

Next is the JoongAng Ilbo.

The results of the Seoul Metropolitan Government's evaluation of how well each of the 25 autonomous districts is recycling. Songpa-gu District, which reduced 9.5% of volume-based waste by recycling coffee grounds and coffee gourds, received the grand prize. In addition, there were various ideas and policies. Let's see what we have. Songpa-gu is said to have recycled coffee gourds collected by waste collection companies as fertilizer or feed. As a result, the number of coffee shops in Songpa-gu increased by 16% over a year, but the number of coffee meal discharged as garbage decreased. In recognition of these recycling achievements, we received the Minister of Environment Award. The grand prize was won by Gwanak-gu, which operated more than 3,000 recycling stations, and Jung-gu, which had the largest amount of sewing fabric rehabilitation capacity. Eunpyeong-gu, which introduced separate discharge and point settlement equipment using artificial intelligence, is also attracting attention. Nowon-gu received good reviews by recycling much more waste vinyl than last year. The Seoul Metropolitan Government will analyze the recycling policy of the autonomous district that received the award and reflect it in the policy. We look forward to becoming an eco-friendly Seoul city by introducing practical and novel recycling policies.

Let's look at the Seoul Shimbun this time.

I want to have a cool beer after work, but there are people who drink non-alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer because of their diet. It's similar but different, did you know the difference? Let me point you out how it differs. First of all, if the alcohol content is less than 1%, it is not classified as alcoholic. However, there is a difference in the process. Non-alcohol is non-alcoholic, and non-alcoholic is non-alcoholic, even in very small amounts. The notation is also different. On the surface of the product, it is written as 0.00% non-alcoholic and 0.0% non-alcoholic. Non-alcoholic beer is easier to find on the market than non-alcoholic. You may be worried that you might be drunk because it contains even a small amount of alcohol, but bread also contains 0.1 to 0.3% alcohol, so you don't have to worry about getting drunk on non-alcoholic beer. With the revision of the law, non-alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer can now be sold in restaurants. The market size is also growing on the health flasher trend.

This is the last Chosun Ilbo.

"Did you have to take it all that way to feel better?" Even if you haven't seen the movie, the main character's name Oh Tae-sik is a famous line of the movie 'Sunflower' that you've heard of. It is said that this movie will be re-released. As if the old hall proves to be a master hall, there is a craze for the re-release of movies in the theater area. The power of new films has dropped significantly in the second half of the year, and old works are receiving more attention. In addition, movies that are safe and fun enough to leave OTT behind and pay for tickets and old movies that have proven their workability are caught in theaters. The re-release has usually been a 4K remastered version of masterpieces from decades ago. These days, however, movies that have only been in theaters for about a year are also on the list of re-released movies. There are many genres such as melodrama and romance, and movies that are highly recognized as memes or have a thick Nth-viewed fanbase are also put on the screen again, such as "Sunflower." It is also recognized for its work quality and is better than other new works in terms of box office, so the re-release response is good. However, the fact that many new works are not chosen by the audience is the point where the theater industry continues to worry.

I looked at the newspaper on the morning of November 19th.

This has been the start briefing.
