According to a leading market research company, YouGov MENA, in 2018, “Plastic pollution is not just a hazard to public health but also a severe threat to the oceans and marine life. Recent reports show that 8.3 billion tonnes of plastic was produced in the UAE alone last year. Despite the government’s widespread efforts to solve this problem, there is low awareness among the masses.” The Sustainability & CSR student club at SP Jain School of Global Management’s Dubai campus initiated an anti-plastic drive on November 5, 2019, generating awareness and encouraging students, staff and the academic community to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle plastic – the 3 Rs of plastic usage.
