A Handbook To Go Zero Waste in Malaysia

From a Facebook group to a full-fledged movement and organisation, the folks behind Zero Waste Malaysia are keeping up the good fight to get more Malaysians on-board with the zero-waste way of life. Always exploring new ways to reach people, last year they launched a Lesson Plan and virtual classroom, and now, they are going to launch the MY Zero Waste Life - Summarized handbook, a free-to-access guide available in four languages. In their own words, it is a  "treasure trove of information compiled from experts and practitioners on sustainable living that will appeal to all Malaysians, from the uninitiated to the avid environmentalist." We find out more about their work and this new exciting compilation from Sue Yee Khor, the co-founder and director of Zero Waste Malaysia, and Jasreel Lim, the head of finance & funding and external relations, at Zero Waste Malaysia.
