| As the calendar turns to September, South Africans are gearing up for the annual Clean-Up & Recycle SA Week, scheduled to take place from 16-21 September 2024. This year marks the 28th consecutive year that Plastics SA will coordinate South Africa’s participation in the International Coastal Clean-Up, the world’s largest volunteer effort dedicated to ocean health. According to Douw Steyn, Sustainability Director at Plastics SA, the entire month of September will be a testament to environmental stewardship, with a focus on cleaning up our surroundings and promoting recycling. “The theme for this year’s event is ‘Making a Difference,’ and we call on South Africans from all walks of life to contribute to the beautification and health of our environment. Whether at work, home, or play, everyone is encouraged to actively participate in eliminating visible litter and promoting a culture of recycling”. |
