More aggressive approach to plastic waste needed


Plastic everywhere: Rubbish-filled Gazumbo Island next to Penang Bridge before a clean-up by volunteers in February. — LIM BENG TATT/The Star

I REFER to the report, “Big haul in Sabah beach clean-up” (The Star, May 5; online at bit.ly/star_ plasticwaste).

It is indeed shocking that 764kg of plastic waste was collected over the weekend at Likas Bay in Sabah.
