Every plastic bag has an enormous environmental cost, from its creation to its disappearance. During its life cycle, from the process of extracting raw materials to its final use, this small object has a huge impact on our planet.

Its birth begins with non-renewable resources like oil or gas, requiring a lot of energy and producing harmful emissions.

Its journey from factory to store generates even more CO2 emissions, contributing to climate change.

🗑Often used just once, this bag takes hundreds of years to decompose, polluting our soil and water.

So how can we help reduce the pollution of our environment?

Our answer? Act now! Refuse single-use bags, adopt reusable alternatives and encourage retailers to change their practices in favor of more environmentally-friendly packaging. And above all, let's learn to put our garbage in the garbage cans.

Every little gesture counts in our fight to reduce the impact of plastic bags on our planet. With this in mind, the Millennium Fellowship has set up a campaign entitled "Zero Plastic Waste on Campus".

Young people living in Abomey - Calavi, students, managers and teachers at the University of Abomey-Calavi, passionate about environmental issues, you are invited to join us in preserving cleanliness and hygiene on our campus. 🌿💧

Together for the preservation of our environment.
