Minister supports Korovou cleanup

Minister for Environment and Climate Change Lynda Tabuya has thrown her support behind efforts to maintain clean communities, providing rubbish bags, gloves, and hand sanitizers to the Tailevu North Netball Association. This assistance bolsters their Korovou community clean-up initiative, which engaged all 12 of the association's affiliated teams.

Vani Bera, the interim president, urged players to set a positive example by disposing of rubbish responsibly. The clean-up reflects the association's dedication to fostering cleaner communities. The Ministry also took the opportunity to highlight the importance of waste separation. Participants were reminded that eligible PET bottles can be returned through Fiji's "Return and Earn Scheme," earning them 5 cents per bottle.

Minister Tabuya commended the netball association for taking the lead and encouraged broader community involvement in keeping the environment tidy. She remarked that sports not only cultivate champions on the court but also inspire champions within communities. Tabuya added that every clean-up, every recycled bottle, and every positive action contributes to a cleaner, healthier Fiji for future generations.
