Improving Our Community
We have partnered with a bamboo producer who is does a lot to take care of his village, provide jobs and educate the children there. He teaches them how to recycle and how to live a zero waste lifestyle. He is collecting donations of used items for the villagers such as clothing and books. He is also working on a library for the village by repurposing old shelves to make into bookshelves.
Right now we are focusing on :
- Bamboo straws
- Reusable glass bottles instead of plastic bottles
- Banana leaves wrapping for food to go
- Bamboo toothbrushes for hotels and individuals
What you can do :
- Be mindful of your use of plastic and avoid it when you can
- raise awareness to your friends and invite them to our Zero Waste Saigon Chalenges
- Talk to your favorite local buisnesses and help them reduce their plastic use
