Facing the situation of pollution caused by waste occurring in many places, spreading over many different large and small scales, the “Zero-waste” is developed with the aim of not letting waste go to landfills, incinerators, or oceans. These efforts are based on the principle of focusing on preventing waste, encouraging the recycling of resources so that all products are reused, making this way become more and more popular in Vietnam particularly and around the world in general.
Vietnam Zero Waste Alliance (VZWA) was established for a sustainable Vietnam. By specific actions such as Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Redesign, Manage waste management… VZWA spreads the green lifestyle of Zero-waste, helps young people to improve their awareness of the future environment.
