Global Recycling Day is an annual event that aims to raise awareness of the importance of recycling and encourage people to take action to reduce waste and protect the environment. The day brings together individuals, organizations, and governments from around the world to promote sustainable practices and highlight the benefits of recycling.
Each year, the local plastics industry encourages citizens to make a difference where they live, work, learn or play by participating in Clean-Up & Recycle SA Week – an annual public awareness week during which plastics and other litter are removed from our country’s neighbourhoods, rivers, streams, beaches and oceans.
Earth Day is a serious reminder that our Earth is the only planet available to us. We need to look after it by protecting land, sea and air for future generations and the wildlife that depend on it. Plan a clean-up of your school, office or a park or river near you and create awareness […]
2026 is the 30th year that Plastics SA will be coordinating South Africa’s participation in the International Coastal Clean-up – the world’s biggest volunteer effort for ocean health. For more information on how you can get involved visit www.cleanupandrecycle.co.za
