THE Climate Change Commission (CCC) and various environmental groups called on Congress to pass a measure banning single-use plastics as the country commemorates the National Zero Waste Month and the 22nd anniversary of the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act this January.

A photo exhibit dubbed #PlasticFreePilipinasSaSenate was launched to drum up efforts to phase out single-use plastics.
