Anti-Plastic Day is organized in the form of an open festival for everyone to participate with camps, along with many attractive and interesting activities, conveying a clear message to reduce plastic waste not only in school environment but also in the community at large.
Young people can participate in many exciting and meaningful activities at the camp, such as “Giving green shoots”, through collecting plastic waste for recycling. “Crafts or Crafts” is a booth with recycled items so people can unleash their creativity, transforming seemingly useless things into beautiful items. From there, promote and propagate people to know more about “recycling”, helping to beautify the landscape and reduce the amount of non-degradable waste.
