Kiteezi landfill has filled it's 36 acres of land to capacity. Despite posing serious negative environmental and social impacts, Uganda is putting up another 135 acres for a new landfill at Ddundu.

If we #GoForZeroWaste, we can avoid reliance on landfills. #EndPlasticPollution

Those plastic materials release toxic chemicals that pollute the air as well as greenhouse gases catalyzing the #ClimateCrisis.

GYLC had an engaging conversation in Kampala today on youth in climate action with @SadrachNirere, founder of @EndPlasticsNow, which is raising public awareness on the need to hold big corporations accountable for their continued production and use of single-use plastics;

[End Plastic Pollution @EndPlasticsNow]

Plastic does not degrade but rather breaks apart forming tiny particles and also leachate percolating from dumping sites. Polluting our soil, risk food security and human health.

The plight of farmers as plastic waste gains more reach into our environment.

#zerowaste begins with rethinking the current throw-away economy and our production & consumption patterns. SOURCE reduction, reuse, recycle are among the most impactful & preferred zero waste strategies that we should push for.

If we are to achieve #ZeroWaste, businesses must #Rethink and #Redesign product packaging and delivery to eliminate single-use and make actual #Reduction.

[End Plastic Pollution @EndPlasticsNow]

Through our @Project_Kollekt, we're educating, training and providing space for waste pickers in local communities. If Uganda is to go #ZeroWaste, waste pickers must be supported to recover and re-enter material back into the economy.

In Uganda waste pickers are key players in advancing zero-waste strategies of material recovery.

Here is an article by @EndPlasticsNow and @GAIAnoburn last year highlighting challenges they face and opportunities in empowering them.
