Provincial administrator Maybelle Dumlao-Sevillena said that in the provincial capitol alone, tons of plastic wastes are being collected daily due to rampant use of plastic materials.
“The rampant practice of vendors selling plastic products in offices has contributed much to the piling of plastic wastes on a daily basis,” Dumlao-Sevillena said.
