Business Seminar “ReThink Plastic Vietnam – Rubbish or Valuable Resource?” by DBAV

The PLASTIC AWARENESS MONTH is officially kicked-off this week with a Plastic Diet Challenge (whole September), a World Clean Up Day on the 15^th, and especially, a Business Seminar: “ReThink Plastic Vietnam – Rubbish or Valuable Resource?”, which will be held on September 27^th.

Did you know, more than half of the plastic waste dumped into the ocean comes from just five countries in Asia, including Vietnam? The excess of plastic consumption and insufficient waste management infrastructure have led to the increase of global plastic pollution epidemic. As an immediate priority, punctual actions to address this global issue are undeniably challenging but imperative.

Part of the initiative of the Consulate General of the Netherlands, Dutch Business Association in Vietnam and Dutch Social Club – Nederlandse Vereniging Vietnam, the Business Seminar “ReThink Plastic Vietnam – Rubbish or Valuable Resource?” has the ambition to shed light on how to make a more sustainable use of plastic products, to brainstorm on possible innovative solutions to deal with waste management and reduce plastic pollution.
