The problem isn’t the government and it’s rudimentary and reactive thinking. It is you and I who use and carelessly dump or dispose of plastic bags.
Jibaba linakula njugu kutoka karatasi ya plastiki. Akishamaliza, anaitupa kokote pale ilhali kuna mahala pametengwa pa kutupa taka.
Stupid Kenyans. And since industry gate keepers weren’t willing to change and produce biodegradables, acha walazimishwe. Finally sisal farms will get revived. Potatoes may become cheaper since their peels will be used as a product in making bags
shida ni distribution of disposal bins…do u expect someone to carry a used bottle of water from BS to muindi mbingu street, for example? ama from jogoo rd to doni or pipeline?
That’s great, the days of going shopping with kiondos are back. Polythine bags are chocking our environment. Curbing them at the source is only way of stopping this menace, at least in kenya. Ingenious Kenyans will step in to fill in the gap…
i don’t agree with u, it is NOT the ONLY WAY…researchers have discovered that wax worms are able to synthesis PET tho at a lower rate…am yet to c the govt try to partner with such or initiate such a research
There has to be an efficient and effective garbage collection system for that to work. In Kenya, establishing a garbage collection and recycling system that works is practically impossible. Cartels, corruption, beurocracy and politics won’t allow it.
all the more reason i think the thought process wasn’t thot thru properly (ni short cuts tu)…again ni kama kupiga chakula marufu ndo watu wasinye ovyo ovyo
Kigali banned them. Even if you bought stuff at duty-free, when you are leaving the airport there is someone waiting to cut that paperbag so you dont bring the nonsense into the country. Its a step in keeping the place clean.
@nairobilay Kigali isn’t the best example here, yao pia ilikuwa shortcut…but again i guess the industry n behaviors weren’t that developed before the ban
