Nongprue has launched another campaign to try to get residents to stop using plastic and foam containers.
Mayor Mai Chaiyanit opened the latest PR push at the Rai Wanasin Market with sub-district officials and residents.
Plastic and foam have become major environmental problems and solutions are required to systematically and properly managing their effects on people and environment.
Foam and plastic take 800 years and 450 years to degrade, respectively. As a result, they create problems regarding elimination due to high costs and the requirement for many landfill areas that become breeding grounds for insects and disease carriers.
Therefore, Nongprue is pushing for residents to reduce waste, avoid and quitting using foam and plastic food containers.
