Takeaway has become a household name and has swept across the country rapidly in the past few years.Takeaway pollution,as a by-product of takeaway consumption,has also been put under the spotlight in recent years.The so-called takeaway pollution refers to the disposable packaging materials consumed by consumers in the process of purchasing takeaway.Takeaway packaging,as a disposable plastic product with no recycling value,will affect people's health through various channels whether it is burned or landfill.Takeaway pollution is a social and economic problem.Behind it is the change of consumption mode,the pursuit of profit by capital,and the poor environmental management.Therefore,clarifying the economic mechanism of takeaway pollution is helpful to explore the strategy of pollution control in reality,and also can promote the improvement of relevant theory in theory.Based on Marx's thought of division of labor and the new theory of consumer behavior,this paper first makes a systematic study of the evolution of the structure of Consumer Factors of production,and puts forward a theoretical hypothesis to explain the economic mechanism of takeaway pollution.After that,the article makes a detailed study of the historical process of the production and development of the takeaway division of labor to large-scale pollution.Finally,a Logit model is established based on the questionnaire data,which further improves the economic mechanism of takeaway pollution.The main conclusion of this paper is that the scarcity of time is the fundamental reason for the evolution of the structure of Consumer Factors of production,and then the root cause of takeaway pollution.In developed markets,consumers tend to buy goods instead of time,which is objective.At the same time,the absence of market environmental regulation and capital subsidies for takeovers have reduced private costs and distorted the price of pollutants.Therefore,the economic mechanism of takeaway pollution consists of three aspects: first,the scarcity of time is the root cause of takeaway pollution;second,the lack of environmental regulation forms the soil for the development of takeaway pollution;third,the distorted effect of capital subsidies is the catalyst to aggravate takeaway pollution.
