Q4 Clue 737 | World Environment Day
The 50th edition already… This year’s theme is plastic pollution. How can we address it?
D-style
Decide, do and then address it that way. It is a global problem, but we can start small. Think about bringing your bag to the shop. And persevere, don’t give up.
I-style
Awareness is also still relevant today. Right from your partner or neighbour to the government. The I in us can verbally convey this. Making it discussable, convincing and win-over.
S-style
Our ‘do style’. Actively contributing and helping. For example, cleaning up roadside litter and or volunteering or donating to a litter clean-up group.
C-style
Why? Globally, more than 400 million tonnes of plastics are produced every year. Half of which is to be used only once, and of that, less than 10% is recycled. Ten million tonnes end up in lakes, rivers and the seas. Eventually, also as microplastics in our food, the water we drink and even the air we breathe.
