Shedding a Light on Single-Use Plastic Bags Amid the COVID-19 Outbreak
Pencerahan Tentang Tas Belanja Sekali Pakai Di Tengah Wabah Covid-19

Just before all the commotion on this COVID-19 outbreak, plenty of petroleum-based plastic manufacturers worry that their industry is crumbling down since there is an increase in people using reusable shopping bags as their effort in reducing the plastic pollution in our seas. An article in the New York Times reported that the plastics industry group stated that reusable shopping bags are “virus-laden” or “Petri dishes for bacteria and carriers of harmful pathogens.” Plastic manufacturers with an agenda may use the hysteria to undo plastic bag bans.

Sebelum semua keributan tentang wabah Covid-19 ini, banyak produsen plastik khawatir bahwa industri mereka semakin memburuk karena adanya peningkatan jumlah orang yang menggunakan kantong belanja yang dapat digunakan kembali sebagai upaya mereka dalam mengurangi polusi plastik di laut kita. Sebuah artikel di New York Times melaporkan bahwa kelompok industri plastik menyatakan bahwa tas belanja reusable adalah “sarang virus.” Pabrik plastik dapat menggunakan histeria ini untuk mengajukan banding atas larangan kantong plastik yang saat ini sudah ditetapkan.

By using the COVID-19 outbreak to generate sales of the plastic bags, the industry will eventually push to start using single-use plastic bags again. Amid banning of single-use plastic bags, lo and behold, the new eco-friendly single-use shopping bags industry rises.

Dengan menggunakan wabah Covid-19 untuk menghasilkan penjualan kantong plastik, industri pada akhirnya akan mendorong manusia yang cemas untuk mulai menggunakan kantong plastik sekali pakai lagi. Di tengah pelarangan kantong plastik sekali pakai, lihatlah, industri tas belanja sekali pakai baru yang ramah lingkungan meningkat.

Eco-friendly shopping bags vary in different materials. As we all know, Avani Eco manufactures shopping bags made of cassava starch pellets. Once thrown into the deep blue oceans, it dissolves within 6 weeks (and contains zero microplastics when dissolved) or composted after being buried in the soil. Single-use eco-friendly shopping bags are obviously less harmful to the environment, yet it is less demanded by capitalist industries because of the price differences.

Tas belanja ramah lingkungan bervariasi dalam berbagai bahan. Seperti kita ketahui, Avani Eco memproduksi tas belanja yang terbuat dari pelet singkong. Setelah terlempar ke samudra biru, ia akan larut dalam waktu 6 minggu (dan tidak mengandung mikroplastik saat larut), atau dikomposkan setelah dikubur di tanah. Tas belanja sekali pakai ramah lingkungan jelas tidak berbahaya bagi lingkungan, namun kurang diminati oleh industri kapitalis karena perbedaan harga.

Some of us are anxious human beings. We would love to contribute to the environment, yet we don’t want anything life-threatening to happen to us. Worry not, Earthlings, Avani Eco’s shopping bags tick all the boxes that are concerning humans in dread – lower risk of contracting the virus from touching reusable bags (check!), non-polluting, eco-friendly, and compostable (check!). Take into consideration the consequences of using single-use plastic shopping bags that the Earth will have to endure when all this COVID-19 shenanigan calms down.

Sebagian dari kita adalah manusia yang gelisah. Kami ingin berkontribusi pada lingkungan, namun kami tidak ingin apapun yang mengancam kehidupan terjadi pada kami. Jangan khawatir, Earthlings, tas belanja Avani Eco mencentang semua kotak yang menyangkut manusia dalam ketakutan – risiko lebih rendah tertular virus karena menyentuh tas belanja reusable (check!), tidak berpolusi, ramah lingkungan, dan dapat di kompos (check!). Pertimbangkan konsekuensi dari menggunakan kantong plastik sekali pakai yang harus ditanggung Bumi saat ini dan untuk di masa depan.

Selama masa kritis ini, yang baik untuk dilakukan adalah melindungi diri sendiri dan orang lain. Kami mengambil tindakan pencegahan ketat sebagai bagian dari upaya kami untuk berkontribusi #flattenthecurve dengan tetap di rumah.

Happy National Waste Awareness Day 2023 Many stil Happy National Waste Awareness Day 2023

Many still think that beach cleanups are not a solution to reduce waste pollution, especially plastic.

But with this activity, we can understand how much trash we collect in the beach areas that we clean and raise awareness. 

With Berawa Beach not so wide apart, @atlasbeachfest and we collected 49 trash bags. We mostly found plastic bags, styrofoam, and straws in the area.

Yes, there is snow, and it's snowing again in Papu Yes, there is snow, and it's snowing again in Papua, Indonesia! ❄️🗻

Although, various research predicted that the eternal snow will become extinct by 2025 due to global warming.

What do you think? Will the eternal snow in the Jayawijaya mountains survive climate crisis?

Valentine's Day is a special time for love and app Valentine's Day is a special time for love and appreciation for those closest to us.

For this special day, we'd like to recognize one of our #AvaniWarriors - Meet Ujang.

Ujang has been a dedicated employee of Avani since 2018 and won the 2022 Avani Awards for being the most eco-friendly. 

As Security, he controls traffic, reports, and monitors activities at our headquarters, all while giving his polite smile and friendly jokes. 

He’s an avid hiker and outdoor enthusiast; he never misses an opportunity to explore the wilderness. Almost every week, he shares with us selfies at a mountain summit somewhere in Bali. 

For him, "there will always be something different given by nature at different peaks and at different times."

He also mentioned, "when climbing a mountain, remember to always protect and respect the environment. Leave memories at every peak. Never leave the trash to become memories."

Ujang is an inspiration to us at Avani, showing us that we can get out of our comfort zones and always strike a perfect balance between work and play. Thank you, Pak Ujang! ✨🤍

The world's oceans and the life within them are es The world's oceans and the life within them are essential to the global climate and environment. Not only do they provide resources for humans, but they are a vital part of the climate system. 

The ocean absorbs large amounts of carbon dioxide, helping to reduce its levels in the atmosphere, which helps to reduce the overall global temperature. They also provide essential habitats for various marine species, providing refuge and a place for biodiversity to flourish. 

These factors work together to help combat climate change, making our oceans essential to preserving the planet and its inhabitants.
