3R's Lyrics

"The 3 R's" - Jack Johnson

Three it's a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
Because two times three is six
And three times six is eighteen
And the eighteenth letter in the alphabet is R
We've got three R's we're going to talk about today
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
If you're going to the market to buy some juice
You've got to bring your own bags and you learn to reduce your waste
And if your brother or your sister's got some cool clothes
You could try them on before you buy some more of those
Reuse, we've got to learn to reuse
And if the first two R's don't work out
And if you've got to make some trash
Don't throw it out
Recycle, we've got to learn to recycle,
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Because three it's a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
3, 3, 3
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36
33, 30, 27, 24, 21, 18, 15, 12, 9, 6, and
3, it's a magic number

The more we say it, the less we waste

DID YOU KNOW?

* About 2.5 billion plastic bags are used every year in Singapore. That's about 2,500 bags used per family per year.

* Plastic bags are made from oil, a finite resource. If each family uses one less plastic bag a week, Singapore could save 50 million bags each year.

* By using reusable bags during our shopping trips, we will use fewer plastic bags and help to conserve the earth's resources.

* Plastic bags thrown away as litter, dirty our public places, rivers and canals, and may even clog up drains, and this would lead to stagnant water and mosquito breeding.

* Plastic bags litter despoils nature trails, beaches and even chokes up mangroves and poses a threat to marine lives.

We're on Urban again!

Ever Green- Go green with a fashionable yet eco-friendly bag. IMRAN JALAL has six suggestions.

From supermarkets such as Cold Storage to aesthetic clinics such as The Sloane Clinic, everyone seems to have an eco bag these days. Just how earth-friendly are they?

Urban ran six good-looking green bags by Vaidehi Shah, a communications executive of the Singapore Environment Council, to see if they hit the (green) mark.

The non-profit, non-government organisation awards the Green Label to eco-frienldy brands.

Shah notes that just because organic materials are used does not mean a product is eco-friendly. "The dilemma with cotton is that it takes up agricultural land while synthetic material polyester does not," she says.

"You need to consider the whole life cycle of the product from the way the materials are harvested to its production process and even the level of wastage during its displosal."


B-DIFF
The silkscreen-printed shoppers from this year-old brand are fast gaining cachet. Between 80 and 100 of its cotton, canvas or polyprophylene (one of the most commonly recycled materials) carriers with artsy prints are sold each month.

Brand founders Albert Ser and Diff Lim, both 31, try to use natural dyes from tree bark, wood, berries and nuts as much as possible.

Seamstresses cut down on wastage by using leftover fabrics to sew handles or inner pockets. This month, it released the Birds and Trees series.

Shah : Simple, practical and beautifully designed. The all-natural materials and vegetable dyes make this brand a great eco-conscious buy.






Above piece extracted from Urban paper published on 24th July 2009.

We are truly grateful to Mr.Vaidehi Shah for his positive comments. A big Thank you!

HK to charge customers for shopping bag

HONG KONG -- Registered retailers in Hong Kong are required to charge customers not less than HK$0.5 (US$0.06) for each shopping bag from July 7 this year, Hong Kong's top environmental official said here Sunday.

Edward Yau, secretary for the Environment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government, made the remarks while officiating the launch ceremony of the "Environmental Levy Scheme on Plastic Shopping Bags" publicity campaign.

He called on people to take their own bags instead of using plastic shopping bags, saying that he was confident that Hong Kong will be able to reduce the local consumption of plastic shopping bags by billions within a year.

"In Hong Kong, the public is becoming more conscious of protecting the environment and we are striving to keep it better for our next generation," he said.
