Time To Save The Planet And Stop Giving Out Plasti..

Time to save the planet and stop giving out plastic bags and single-use plastic bottles? What do you think?



[ So many plastic bags and bottles? ]

175,000 single-use plastic bottles and 175,000 plastic bags will be given out at this year’s National Day Parade. The Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources (MEWR) has designated 2019 as the Year towards Zero Waste and I feel that we can have a NDP that is green and one that produces less waste.

As such, I’ve filed the following Parliamentary Question for next month’s sitting:

“To ask the Minister for Defence for the National Day Parade 2019 funpack (a) whether a reusable water bottle can be provided instead of a single-use plastic bottle; (b) whether alternatives to the plastic bag provided have been considered; and (c) whether the unused poncho collection points can be used to collect other unused funpack items or unwanted funpack bags.”

What do you think 🤔

Help “Share” and spread the word 😊 Thanks!
