Plastic in Cambodia's sea - The Guardian
Plastic in Cambodia's sea - The Guardian
Looking down into the water that lies beneath the ramshackle houses of Sihanouk, Cambodia, it is hard to imagine that the sea is there at all. Instead, there is dense layer upon layer of plastic waste clogging the water, piling up around poles that support the wooden homes, carpeting the beach....

If you enjoy noise pollution and obnoxious driving practices, Phnom Penh is the place for you!

Didn't Sihanoukville win the 'most beautiful city' award sometime in last few years??

The rubbish collection on land also seems to be struggling.
If things dont improve the rainy season is going to be a mess!

Didn't Sokha say they had a waste burner? Seem to recall big fanfare on the intertubes about it and then nothing. What Shv really needs is a waste-to-electric generator, that way there would be some sort of cash incentive to collect all the shit up. You could stick it up on the hills with a big chimney so all the toxic fumes wafted over to Vietnam. A win for everyone.

Using acronyms is a capital offence.

Ha! THAT'S not rubbish. It's actually a commissioned artwork and has been in place for years!Captain Bonez wrote:topic19652.html#p241818
