It involves using resources wisely, minimizing waste and pollution, and ensuring long-term environmental, social, and economic balance. Sustainability encompasses various aspects such as environmental conservation, social equity, and economic development, all aimed at creating a more resilient and harmonious world for both people and the planet.(Chatgpt,2023)]]> 2023-06-26 06:49:29 UTC https://padlet.com/23035312/tibrcudttvfbjxkp/wish/2632282422 What are the three pillars of sustainability? 23035312 https://padlet.com/23035312/tibrcudttvfbjxkp/wish/2632320431  Economic development, social progress, environmental protection

As a large number of disposable products are made of plastic, the waste of plastic is still increasing, causing a serious impact on the environment. 
• Plastic pollution has a serious impact on the environment. It will affect our living environment, marine environment and ecosystem.

1. Particulate Matter (PM): Smelting operations can generate fine particulate matter, consisting of dust and metal fumes. These particles can be released into the air and contribute to respiratory issues when inhaled.
2. Sulfur Dioxide (SO2): Gold ore often contains sulfur-bearing minerals, and when the ore is heated during smelting, sulfur dioxide can be released into the atmosphere. SO2 is a major contributor to acid rain and can have adverse effects on human health.
3. Nitrogen Oxides (NOx): High temperatures involved in gold ore smelting can cause the formation of nitrogen oxides, primarily nitrogen dioxide (NO2). NOx emissions contribute to the formation of smog and have respiratory and environmental impacts.
4. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): During the smelting process, organic compounds may be released as gases. VOCs can contribute to the formation of ground-level ozone and have potential health effects. （chatGPT，2023）]]> 2023-07-04 15:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/23035312/tibrcudttvfbjxkp/wish/2638074936 23035312 https://padlet.com/23035312/tibrcudttvfbjxkp/wish/2638075250 Then, I went to the official website of a jewelry brand to search for relevant materials related to the source of gold jewelry raw materials
