Excessive use of single-use plastics is one of the main reasons that contribute to the reduction of Mangrove forest. These pictures are not from Google search, they were pictures we took in a fishing village somewhere in Malaysia. It was a shocking sight. Can you imagine as you walk around the unique local stilt houses, what you see underneath are massive colourful single-use plastics covering the whole place? Its easy to think these must be the doing of the local villagers, but no, they are rubbish that came in with the tide, they can come from all over the world.
Mangrove trees breath through the root system. Imagine our mouth and our nose are being forcefully covered, how would we feel?
City dwellers often said to us - “but we are living in the city, what is it that we can do to help improve the situation for our Mangrove forest?” Our answer is - “You can help by reducing one single-use plastic at a time.”
一次性塑料袋過度使用是紅樹林不斷消失的其中一個重要因素。這些照片是我們幾年前在中馬某個漁村拍攝的。當時我們一踏入那漁村馬上為眼前所見感到無比震驚。馬來西亞西海岸傳統漁村一般都是建在海上。你能不能想像你一路走在這獨特建築上，踏著的木板下佈滿的都是一次性塑料垃圾？
紅樹的樹根是它們的呼吸系統，試想看如果我們的嘴巴鼻子都被捂住會怎樣？
常常有住在城市的人問我們說「我住在城市，如何為保護紅樹林盡一份心力？」我們的答案：「只要你少用一個一次性塑料袋你就盡了一份力。」
