Activity of IGCAUS,
Environmental Clubs

We were invited to join youth talk, on single-use plastic,

it was beneficial and enjoyable as it was the same topic of our DAEJAYON project.

At first, a short power point talking about single-use plastic was prepared, which was so impressive.

We learned more about what happens in our daily life and the amount that has been used daily,

and the difference between single-use plastic and acrylic plastic.

Secondly, we had a discussion talk by Mr. Humaid Al Khanji where he asked us

questions, ideas or for us to share our knowledge. He asked questions such as,

How can we stop plastic from harming the earth?

Is plastic so important that it cannot be banned?

If there’s no plastic on earth will we live?

and so much more.

The single use plastic that is commonly used around us are straws, plastic bottles, plastic bags, plastic cups and cutlery.

Our team members started talking about how we should reduce plastic usage and what we should replace them with.

Tadweer shared some information about their trash bins that are now everywhere around UAE,

and the trash bins are divided into three sections, plastic, paper, and general waste.

Bouroj were participating in the youth talk too, even though their company is one of the companies who produce plastic.

They have a good reason behind it because of the plastic pipes they use which is a big thing when earthquakes or something similar hits us.

It was an entertaining session that we would for sure join another one.
