Zero Waste campaign

Competition Topic

Zero waste: It's a comprehensive system approach for permanently preventing waste accumulation, preserving all resources through responsible production, consumption and reuse, and recovering and packaging all products and materials without being incinerated or disposed of in the soil, water, or air in a way that threatens the environment and human health. The plan includes the following: waste reduction, reuse, composting, recycling, changing consumption habits, and industrial redesign. Through the Zero-Waste Campaign launched by the Ministry of Municipality under the slogan "Less waste, a more beautiful city", aiming to raise community awareness of the importance of waste as part of resource sustainability, the Ministry of Municipality seeks to achieve zero waste.
