More than 9.1 billion tons of plastic waste are accumulating on Earth. Faced with this situation, Dai Nam University continues to implement the environmental communication program - Say no to plastic bags. On the morning of May 11, hundreds of students of the school took to the streets with hand-drawn posters calling on the community to join hands to say no to plastic bags and single-use plastic products.

However, plastic waste and nylon bags are the leading factors causing environmental pollution, affecting human life and the ecosystem every day and every hour. Everyone needs to be responsible in the fight against white pollution and save their own lives…”
