PONDA: Environment Minister Alina Saldanha has urged people to act responsibly to solve the growing garbage problem in the State.
She was addressing a function at the Goa Vidhyaprasarak Mandal’s (GVM) plastic-free campaign at Ponda on Thursday. As part of the drive, students from the GVM’s schools were asked to collect plastic waste generated at their homes. The idea behind such a drive was to prevent plastic waste being thrown in the open. Mass plastic waste collected over three months was taken to A J de Almeida School, Ponda, on Thursday.
