People can swap plastic waste for eco-friendly products.

The launching ceremony of the program "Green tourism" is to propagate and mobilize the residential community, businesses, and tourists to carry out a campaign to protect the sea and island environment in association with the development of green tourism products.

At the ceremony, representatives of passenger ships on the Phan Thiet - Phu Quy route, and tourism businesses and households on the island will sign a commitment to protect the environment, and not to use hard-to-decompose plastic products in business activities.

On this occasion, enterprises specializing in the production of eco-friendly packaging will introduce models and solutions to reducing plastic waste and difficult-to-decompose and single-use plastic products. Along with that, there is a program to swap plastic waste for eco-friendly products (bags, cups, spoons, straws, etc). In addition, Phu Quy district will also launch a campaign to collect waste and plant trees at the same time.
