“Waste and pollution is a mirror that correctly reflects the attitudes of societies.”
These were the words of Local Government, Housing and Environment Minister, Parveen Bala while launching of the Home Composting Program and Clean School Program at the Tanoa Skylodge Hotel in Nadi today.
Bala said that improper waste management and pollution is a pressing issue that needs immediate action.
The Minister said the program is launched to encourage families, schools and communities to recycle organic waste by practicing home composting.
Bala highlights that the recent data in the health sector reveals a corresponding spike in water borne diseases outbreaks and Fiji must re-double its efforts to clean the environment.
