Things that drive me up the wall - disposables!!
Fine, it's necessary for medical items to avoid cross-contamination and infection.
But plastic spoons??? Come on la. How difficult is it to wash a spoon after you eat breakfast in the office? Do you really need to get a plastic spoon to eat the tau-fu-fa you bought to eat at home?
If you're eating at a stall without proper washing facilities OK la. Or if you're travelling and have no access to proper cutlery.
Yes, plastics can be recycled. But how many of us actually do it? It's better to reduce waste by buying goods that can be reused for a long time before being recycled at the end of it's 'life'.
So remember, before you take that free "present", think - do I really need it?
Make a choice. Do the right thing. Say NO to disposables :D

i think its time the schools introduce an independant subject that teaches the young on eco-friendly ways. Don't you think? Its all about their future anyway :)
Even better, make it a way of life. We tend to forget "school subjects".
