KUALA LUMPUR: Plogging, or picking up trash while exercising, commonly practiced in Sweden, could have a positive impact on the country’s environmental sustainability if widely adopted, says Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad.

The Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Minister said this activity could also cultivate a sense of unity and appreciation for nature conservation among the people.
