Are we in for a massive plastic invasion?
Dear Editor,
Now that the rainy season is here again, the plastic containers that were dumped on the roadways, thrown in the drains and trenches, pitched from a passing vehicle dropped by someone after consuming the contents are now floating and blocking up our drains and canals in the City and country-side.
It looks really ugly to see piles and piles of plastic containers littering our surroundings. After all, plastic can’t rotten and will continue to be an eyesore in our country.
How do the President and his ministers feel when they visit other countries to see the clean streets, roads and canals compared with our boastful Georgetown and surroundings littered with all manner of garbage?
With no recycling plant here and the manufacturing of soft drinks and bottled water locally, plus the importing of tons of foodstuff and aerated drinks in plastic containers, are we in for a massive plastic invasion that will surely make Guyana a scorn?
George Vernon
