 Young people have joined individuals, businesses and governments around the world to mark World Environment Day with a focus on solutions to plastic pollution. In line with this, the Inspired Youth Network has taken the campaign to one of the pages in Conny Island Lagos with a focus of creating awareness towards reducing plastic use and also promote sustainable waste management practices to mitigate climate change and reduce plastic pollution. Resource manager of the IYN, Uluwatoi Adejako says their implementation of this campaign will lead to a cleaner environment and positive environmental impact. The Inspired Youth also seek to motivate the public to embrace sustainable waste management practices, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit the amount of plastic waste entering the oceans. We actually underestimate the impacts, the negative effects of plastic in their country. And then if we look at from last year to this year, we actually have a quite number of, or statistically, flooding. It was something that was prevalent in the news at all times. And then we don't really understand that plastics, nylon, waste, trash are some of the objects that blocks these drainage from what are flowing to the right sources. So we decided that we should create awareness on this and show that people understand the word recycling. A lot of people don't understand the word recycling, understand what recycling is all about. The effects of pollution on the environment is very, very disastrous. It could cause flooding, it could cause bad health, there are so many things that could go wrong. It also affects the ecosystem because right now in the ocean, you can see so many nylons in there. And we're trying our best to remove them as soon as they come on shore and put in our bags so we could evacuate them. The effect of this long term could also affect the human race. At the end of the day, the ecosystem of the ocean is bad, we won't be able to survive. The impact of the environment, we all live with it. This is rainy season again. We're all just going to get houses flooded, the road to your house is going to be flooded. That's the direct impact of not cleaning up your environment. And I think this is something that should happen every single day. Absolutely. One of the reasons I'm here today is because we partnered with Watobi to launch a program called Insured by Waste, where people can swap their recyclables for both money and health insurance. And that's just one of the many amazing benefits you get from recycling. You get money, you get health care that you probably would not get by yourself and I think there's no downside to doing it. Please Nigerians, stop littering. I mean there are cans, bins, dustbins everywhere, please throw your trash in the bin, please. Because all of this is not good. See a beautiful place and see all the kind of dust that is coming in from the sea. It's not just on the ground, it's only coming in for this cause. You guys have an habit of training, please Nigerians, stop littering.
