JUARA SAMPAH SASET: Ekspedisi 3 Sungai #04
Champion of Sachet Waste
A film by Ecological Observation and Wetlands Conservation (Indonesia)
Running Time: 31:36
Part 4 of ECOTON’s Three River Series starts with students from the State Islamic University (UIN) as they conduct an inventory of plastic trash, specifically of sachets dumped in the Brantas River in East Java, Indonesia. The team details how sachet waste directly impacts the water quality of the Sengguruh Water Reservoir and offers solutions to address the problem.
Ecological Observation and Wetlands Conservation (ECOTON) began as a Biology Study Program in 1996. Due to a sense of concern for the environmental issues in East Java, particularly in Kali Surabaya, ECOTON was fully incorporated as a non-profit and non-government organization aimed at raising awareness on the increasing level of waste pollution in East Java’s rivers.
