HEADS UP
Harper's Bazaar Malaysia|March 2020

HEADS UP

So much of the way we live revolves around habits we barely even think about, which is why there’s often a chasm between hearing that our planet is headed to hell in a handbasket and changing our behavior. That gap closed for me, just a little, at the London zoo on a field trip with my eight-year-old son to learn about waste. An image flashed onto a screen that took my breath away: the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, an area in the North Pacific that’s almost the size of Queensland where winds and current draw our debris onto a huge carousel that never (ever) stops. A worrying matter closer to our hearts: the 3,737 tons of waste dumped onto Malaysian ports by 13 countries over the last 5 years.
