AYOKO ng PLASTIC! - An Earth Day Blog

It's Earth Day! 🌏
Shout out to Mother Nature for putting up with us all these years! 🌱(Caveat: long caption but please take time to read 👇)


We are not unaware that the ONLY planet we live in is now in a bad shape. Let's allow Earth to heal. One small step to allay the damage is to refuse single-use plastic. I know, PLASTIC has been around for as long as we can remember and it has made life more convenient; but sadly at the cost of the planet. Here are some small things we can do that can create BIG IMPACT if we do them together:
1. Bring own shopping bag (trust me this is life changing)
2. Bring own water container (can anyone tell me where I can buy a shoulder strap for water jug please?)
3. Avoid throwing plastic anywhere. If you can't see a garbage bin nearby, keep that wrapper in your pocket til you can dispose it properly.
4. Have those tumblers from your favorite coffee shops? Use them when you order next time and you may get discounts.
5. Refuse single-use plastic straws and stirrers
6. If it's inevitable to use straws (sensitive teeth like me 😣, or just to enjoy those sweet milk tea pearls); switch to glass, bamboo, or steel straws that's handy and low maintenance (Thanks Kira and Jojan for my reusable straws 😘💓)
That's it folks! Oh, I recently attended a seminar by JCI Duwaling about making Eco Bricks (from plastics), will share more about that with you soon on the blog 😊
P.S. Sadly, I don't know yet how to avoid plastic people in our lives 😅🌽

I'd probably learn pastry making soon but maybe calligraphy lessons sooner. Normal is boring. Most of the people close to me prolly think I'm weird. I dunno. Love is my religion, I'm a low-key agnostic. Jed's greatest fan or biggest headache. hihi

About the Blog

WONOLOGUES is an experimental blog I started in 2008. I coined it by combining WOWO+MONOLOGUES. Wowo is my nickname. I was told that it came from the word "wow". I believed them. I envision this blog to be a wonderful monologue as told by Wowo, just a hodgepodge of all things I find wonderful. I just came back from a year of hiatus. New blog posts weekly.
