Rimmer Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Pattaya educates public on recycling, composting PATTAYA:--Pattaya officials are attempting to educate community leaders and students about the need to better separate waste, recycling and composting to tackle the city’s garbage crisis. Deputy Mayor Ronakit Ekasingh opened the Jan. 19 workshop at Pattaya City School 7 with top officials from the city Environment Department. Environmental Director Sutee Tunnonghe said Pattaya is trying to raise awareness of the public about separating trash and using less plastic and foam. Pattaya is growing every day and that means residents have to change their behavior to stop using plastic bags and foam boxes unless necessary. Thailand, he pointed out, discards 45 billion pieces of plastic and foam a year, giving the country the ignominious title of having the highest ratio of daily waste per person – 1.76 kilograms – in Southeast Asia. -- PATTAYA MAIL 2019-02-01-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 "Pattaya is growing every day and that means residents have to change their behavior to stop using plastic bags and foam boxes unless necessary. " Should be Pattaya is growing every day and that means residents VENDORS have to change their behavior to stop using plastic bags and foam boxes unless necessary. Plastic bags and foam boxes are illegal (except very rare exceptions) in my hometown in USA. Has not caused any great burden on commerce. Differences include laws are enforced there, the public does care about environment, etc etc Fines for using foam and plastic could lead to quick changes here. Flapping jaws.... not a chance.
