"Nigeria needs to push for the creation of an extensive system for tracking the trade in plastics. Promote investigation into the issue and aggressive policy implementation to phase out single-use plastics.According to Benson Fasanya, a senior official at the Center for Earth Work, Nigerians squander 60 million water sachets on average every day, which significantly contributes to pollution in the entire nation.
Many people believe that recycling can control plastic trash, but recycling has never been a solution, according to Fasanya. For instance, despite having some of the best recycling technology in the world, America has only recycled 9% of the world's plastic waste since it first became a problem decades ago.
