Together with Nhat Tin Logistics to reduce plastic waste

Based on WHO’s statistics, the yearly global consumption of plastic bottles has reached 525 billion bottles. Moreover, the amount of plastic bags used has also reached a record of 5000 billion bags. On average, the total amount of plastic waste in the environment is 300 million tons per year, with over 8 million tons thrown in the ocean.

Vietnam is also facing many dangers from plastic waste, with estimated numbers of 1.8 million tons per year and steadily increasing per day.

Just 1 plastic bag or bottle alone takes at least 100-200 years to decompose, while many products often contain additives that make them stronger, more flexible and durable, extending the life of products, which causes it to take at least 400 years to break down. Neither incineration nor burial help to decompose the plastic waste. On the contrary, they release toxic gases, which significantly affect our health and our environment.

Meanwhile, numerous marine life is dying due to swallowing plastics or becoming entangled in abandoned fishing gear or discarded six-pack rings.

For years we have witnessed the series of consequences the plastic waste has caused to the environment, to our health and to animals.

Therefore, Nhat Tin Logistics wishes to encourage everyone to replace plastic products with environmentally friendly items such as glass, paper and to limit the use of plastic products as much as possible. Let us build a green, clean and beautiful Vietnam together!
