BEIJING - More than 90 percent of Chinese citizens are aware that separating trash into different materials can lead to more recycling, according a survey conducted recently by China Youth Daily.
Even so, fewer than 20 percent said they are willing to act in accordance with that knowledge.
The Beijing-based newspaper polled 2,004 respondents, about 25 percent of whom live in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, with the rest in other Chinese cities.
