Every year, the world produces more than two billion tonnes of municipal solid waste. If all that waste was packed into standard shipping containers, it would wrap around the globe 25 times. Everyone can play a part in achieving a more sustainable future. ➡️ Reduce waste ➡️ Refuse packaging, shopping bags, or other products or services you don’t need ➡️ Reuse and redesign items instead of replacing them ➡️ Recycle Monday is the International Day of Zero Waste: https://lnkd.in/gi8tuenZ — via UN Environment Programme & UN-Habitat (United Nations Human Settlements Programme)
