As university students, we can see our massive crowd buying single-use plastic water bottles, plastic bags, cups, etc in our daily lives, contributing to plastic pollution without knowing that plastics take 500 years to degrade!
How can we STOP being part of the POLLUTION?
Well, going zero waste enables us to be part of the SOLUTION! Not only can we help protect our planet, living a zero waste lifestyle teaches us about sustainability and is financially beneficial to us as students! 🌿💰
Did you know 160,000 plastic bags are used every second around the world?! 🛍
Instead of being a part of this figure, we could purchase reusable tote bags, which comes in variety of sizes, colours, designs and materials for your personal preferences. These are so affordable and long lasting.
Spending months keeping budgets, we still waste so much money on water bottles when we can purchase strong, lasting bottles/flasks. Moreover, numerous cafes now offer discounts to individuals bringing their own cups/containers.
Besides, we should also start purchasing notebooks made of recycled papers, and recycle our own books that are not in use anymore. 🌍📚
Lastly, the most cost-effective activity, just DIY! To do it yourself is not just fun but also cheap and different! 🤩
