According To A Report In The Star In February 2020..
8th Jun 2020, by Roots & Shoots Malaysia
According to a report in The Star in February 2020, most of our plastics are dumped, a small portion burnt and a very tiny fraction (2% in 2013) recycled. We imported nearly half a million tonnes of plastic waste in the first half of 2018. Much of our dumped plastics find their way to the oceans.
What can you do?
Dispose of rubbish responsibly
Waste that does not get disposed of properly eventually finds its way to the rivers and finally to the oceans. Throw all your waste into a bin.

What can we do?
Support our NGOs
Whether through donating, helping to spread awareness, or through volunteering, we can slow down and hopefully stop this rac...

Sun Bears Play A Vital Ecological Role In Our Jung..
16th May 2020, by Roots & Shoots Malaysia
Sun bears play a vital ecological role in our jungles as seed dispersers, forest engineers, forest doctors and forest farmers.
They feast on, and therefore, control the termite population which protects the forest trees. In the process of eating stingless bees, they carve holes in trees that hornbills and flying squirrels use as nests.

However, poaching and deforestation are pushing sun bears to ext...
