When we think about waste, we rarely think about its impact beyond the trash bin. But every bag matters. Traditional plastic bags add to methane emissions, choke marine life, and disrupt ecosystems. By switching to eco friendly garbage bags, we can: 1. Cut down methane emissions from landfills 2. Turn waste into compost that nourishes soil 3. Protect marine life from harmful plastics Eco friendly waste disposal isn’t just about reducing trash, it’s about building a sustainable future through small, conscious choices. Next time you throw something away, ask yourself: is my waste helping the planet or hurting it? #Sustainability #EcoFriendly #WasteManagement #CircularEconomy #Biodegradable #ZeroWaste #ClimateAction #SustainableBusiness

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐜𝐞𝐚𝐧’𝐬 𝐂𝐫𝐲: 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐖𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧? Our plastic waste is killing marine life. Plastic doesn’t disappear—it breaks down into tiny toxic fragments that last for centuries. It spreads across oceans.

What happens to low-value plastic waste when no one collects it? It gets dumped. Burned. Left to clog rivers and flood streets. The truth is: Most of this waste has no value in the traditional recycling market. But that’s where ReForm Plastic comes in. We create systems that accept the unacceptable. We collect, sort, shred, and transform these forgotten materials into durable, useful boards. Not just because it’s possible — but because it’s necessary. This is how we fight climate risks, local pollution, and environmental injustice at the same time. Because waste isn’t the problem — it’s what we do (or don’t do) with it. #ReFormPlastic #PlasticPollution #CircularEconomy #SustainableSolutions #ClimateResilience #TrashToTech

🌍 Plastic Waste: Our Shared Responsibility Every minute, a truckload of plastic ends up in our oceans — polluting our food, water, and even the air we breathe. Plastic waste is choking our environment, harming wildlife, and threatening our health. But together, we can change this story. By practicing the 5Rs — Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, and Recycle — we can protect our planet and secure a sustainable future. 📽️ Proud to share this short documentary and to tag Centre for Renewable Energy and Action on Climate Change CREACC-NG their continuous work in advancing climate solutions. 💚 Let’s protect our environment — one action at a time. #PlasticPollution #5Rs #Sustainability #ClimateAction #CREACC
