| Abstract |
The market of plastics has increased by 23% in 7 years (from 2008 to 2015) due to their versatile properties and cheap production. Combating the menace of plastic waste pollution has become a global environmental challenge and the plastic waste disposal is a major obstacle for waste management and recycling all over the world. In Vietnam, It is a common practice to see a large number of waste plastic products not collected in waste bins for further processing, recovery and standard disposal via recycling centers, incinerators or landfills, rather, they are carelessly scattered or discarded into regions that are inaccessible for waste collection and hence terminating the possibility of recovery/recycling. The usual practices include plastic bottles and containers being thrown on the ground, thrust out of vehicles, hipped around narrow passages or blown away by wind which litter the surroundings and subsequently pollute the immediate ecosystem. This paper therefore seeks to the appropriated closed chain system for plastic wastes toward to circular economy in Vietnam, the special case model was applied in Co To district with the participation of community, social organizations, local authorities and 02 collected vendors to collect, reuse and recycle from plastic waste. The model has contributed to improve the tourism environment, reduce the plastic waste disposal and change the inhabitant's awareness and consumption habits. |
