LCPS 20
During our one-week plastic clean up exercise in 2020, approximately 2158.3 kg of plastic waste was removed with the assistance of over 400 volunteers who participated in the exercise. The plastic waste collected was sold to recycling firms; the proceeds were used to empower and educate women and youth in various communities in Lagos State.
