I suggest we use their most pressing needs to get their attention. Not everyone says no to a chance of making extra money or rather extra. #WASHPollution @RecyclePointsNG @realwecyclers @bilikiss @RecycleSpotNG @estherclimate @moelagos @CleanerLagos

It is important we get people interested in recycling. We can talk to everyone in Nigeria and still not get our desired result if they are not interested. #WASHPollution @RecyclePointsNG @realwecyclers @bilikiss @RecycleSpotNG @estherclimate @moelagos @CleanerLagos

The use of non-recyclable packaging should be stopped immediately. Manufacturers of packages should be made to partner with at least one recycling outfit if they don’t have a recycling unit. #WASHPollution @RecyclePointsNG @realwecyclers @RecycleSpotNG @moelagos @CleanerLagos

I recommend a round table discussion should be held with manufacturers of both the items and packaging. They should be made to come up with symbols that state whether or not a material is recyclable, just as you have it on plastics. #WASHPollution @RecyclePointsNG @realwecyclers

Most people dislike seeing waste pile up around their houses because of the unpleasant smell so they opt for these options, with dumping in a water body being the most preferred as you don’t have to deal with smoke, ashes after burning or buying kerosene. #WASHPollution

As a result of our poor waste management culture, burning of waste or dumping in a water body are two popular ways of getting rid of our waste. #WASHPollution

It was ok for us to dispose of it after use because we could buy another one if we needed it. They were made readily available in the market at an affordable price for all. #WASHPollution

All these developments were welcomed as it made life easier for us, but nobody thought about the negatives. The thing is the PET bottles, plastic plates, sachet water and disposable plates, cups and cutleries were all introduced to us as ‘disposables’. #WASHPollution

As the country developed, things started to change. PET bottles were used for packaging drinks in place of the glass bottles as people were told they wouldn’t need to have glass bottles again to buy drinks & take away or pay a deposit to take the bottles away. #WASHPollution

Back then we used to save plastic plates for repacking food to be stored in the freezer or PET bottles; Swan and Eva water (the most popular then), to store drinking water in our fridges, hence the reduced number of recyclable waste in our gutters. #WASHPollution
