13th Apr 2022, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
This evening, before you visit the Ramadhan bazaar, make a conscious decision to refuse single-use plastic straws.
Not only will we use these plastic straws just once (and for a maximum of 30 minutes), they stay in our environment for a long time wayyyy after we have thrown them out!
We can do what's right right now by ditching single-use plastic straws and switching to biodegradable rice straws by ADA Biotech.
Oh by the way, did you know that these straws are edible too?! Yes, and they're ...

10th Apr 2022, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
"We should all grow our own food and do our own waste processing, we really should." -Bill Gates
During Ramadhan, we tend to buy more food than we need for self-consumption as well as for entertaining guests. According to conservative estimates, nearly one-fifth of the food purchased or prepared during Ramadhan ends up in landfills or rubbish bins.
The world produces enough food to keep everyone alive today well-fed, however, world hunger is still on rise. We discard and waste about β

8th Apr 2022, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Salam Ramadhan!
Here's a gentle reminder to bring our own food containers and water bottles to the Bazaar Ramadhan. Imagine ALL the wastes that we are NOT generating if only each of us try to be more mindful of our actions, not just during the holy month of Ramadhan, but also beyond.
We've been to a bazaar recently and we found that the makciks happily packed our food into our containers. One of them even said, "Eh ehh, bawa tupperware sendiri! Lagi baik!"
Featured in this post are our 1.5L w...
