National Environment Week launched on 29 May 2018 and will conclude on June 5. It began with a high-level policy conference on strategies and mechanisms to address plastic pollution. The conference attracted participants from government institutions, international organisations, the private sector, civil society, academic institutions and the media.

 

The conference included discussions on managing plastic waste in Rwanda in line with this year’s World Environment Day theme: Beat Plastic Pollution. Participants shared ideas on strategy and policy solutions to combat the use of plastics and the business opportunities in the reduction, reuse and recycling of plastics.

 

Other activities during National Environment Week include a countywide inspection of the illegal use of plastic bags, community work ‘Umuganda’, a Beat Plastic Pollution Walk in Kigali during Car Free Day on 3 June 2018, a Green Drinks Kigali discussion on plastic management, and an exhibition on plastic recycling, among others.

117 divers from all over the world carried out a clean-up below the waves -one of many initiatives emerging from Lebanon's civil society as a call for action and also a response to the failure to address a long-running garbage crisis. They have resulted in the collection of 2 tons of underwater waste.

Amazing initiative by the The Pearl Protectors and Zero Trash, along with all the volunteers to construct this Christmas Tree using 1500+ PET Bottles to raise awareness about the challenges that marine environments face due to increasing plastic pollution.

 

Merry (Plastic-Free) Christmas to all those who are celebrating!! ✨🎄

Global warming is no fiction.

 

Respect to all the young and old climate marchers.

There are many haters of the current #youthforclimate movement on the social media.. and those haters are usually the 1st ones to complain about the heatwaves, floodings, storm winds, drought, monsoonlike rain, extreme weather, dirty beaches and all the other examples of the changing climate and the environmental degradation.

Humanity is responsible for both so humanity should work towards solutions and the young are the engine of change.

Blue plastic drifting amongst the seaweed.. the plastic has been there that long tiny bits of seaweed has become attached and is now subsequently growing from it.

🌊

Plastic pollution is one of the biggest threats facing our oceans. They say that now we are in turn potentially ingesting micro-partials of plastic from the seafood food we have caught and eaten. With this said, the tide is literally starting to turn. More and more people are aware of the dire consequences and are also now taking bold & unprecedented action to help fight the war against ocean plastic. We need to make changes now, for the next generation. 🌎
