One of our new SGEFF Partners is Zero Waste SG – a non-governmental organisation
committed to helping Singapore, move towards a circular economy and eliminate
waste once and for all.
They work with everyone – from individuals to business organisations, to
educate, spread the environmental message and implement ways to reduce
Waste.
Eugene Tay, director of Zero Waste SG, has spent many years working on waste
management, and the issue is very close to his heart. Zero Waste SG encourages
the 3Rs – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and emphasises the importance of
understanding that waste can always be repurposed somewhere else. In
particular, they hope to inspire people to take action.
“It’s not wishful thinking but crucial in ensuring our survival. It’s going to take
much time, commitment and efforts to move towards zero waste, so it’s
important to start now and build the momentum for change,” said Eugene.
On Sun Sept 3, Eugene will be speaking on the panel after Racing to Zero, “a quick-moving, upbeat documentary presenting new solutions to the global problem of waste”. More details on the screening here: http://racingtozero.peatix.com
On why SGEFF is important for their cause, he said, “The power of stories is
an effective way to enable the public to understand and more importantly to feel
about environmental issues such as zero waste, and to nudge them to take action
after watching the films.”
We feel the same way too. Thanks, Eugene and welcome to SGEFF!
