Plastic Free Friday movement hits campus

The Campus Sustainability Office sparked off the new ‘Plastic Free Friday’ movement in April 2018. It aims to arouse awareness across the campus on reducing disposable plastic waste. It suggests everyone on campus skip plastic for one day a week and say no to disposable lunchboxes and cups, plastic straws and plastic bags on Fridays.

Under this movement, a weekly No Straw Friday event has started to run from 6 April 2018 onwards. Campus catering outlets will only offer straws when requested on Fridays. Information about these participating catering outlets can be read from https://goo.gl/UqMteX. More events and activities will come soon to bring the movement to a climax.
