PHNOM PENH (The Phnom Penh Post/ANN): The Ministries of Environment, Education, Youth and Sports, and the Cambodia Rural Students Trust (CRST) have collaborated to implement an environmental care project called Project 'R' in Siem Reap province.
The project aims to improve the environment and promote plastic reduction by providing 40,000 refillable water bottles for junior high and high school students around the province.
“The ministries of Environment and Education, Youth and Sport, and the CRST have collaborated in Siem Reap to improve the environment and promote a reduction in toxic plastic by providing 40,000 refillable water bottles for students of 56 junior high and high schools around the provincial town, ” he said.“This means we need to pay greater attention to environmental sanitation and create a clean environment that is free of toxic plastic waste, ” he said.
“This is a movement that will hopefully encourage other schools to take part in the implementation of measures to reduce plastic use at schools and in the community. It is the campaign that says ‘no’ to plastic products and the use of products which are bad for our environment, ” he said. The bags can also harbour contagious diseases. In some cases, they contain toxic chemical substances that can penetrate into the land and impact the quality of land and water.
Second, the committees must prepare signages and slogans which will be displayed, demonstrating the students’ connection and dedication to a clean environment.
