I was in for 4 days, a chaotic city like many I’ve been to before in Asia. There are about 20 million people here (twice the size of Saigon) and a large amount of wealth disparity. It has one of the largest slums in Asia (Dharavi) with 1 mill people, almost as big as Da Nang. Of course there are dirty parts, gritty parts, unsightly and unhealthy looking parts. But I couldn’t help but notice a real effort by the city to make it aware the importance of things like water conservation, proper waste disposal, reduced use of plastic and even home composting. There were public messages everywhere from massive signs on busy roads to murals painted on small walls. Everywhere I looked, someone was trying to get the message out: use less, use wisely, reduce, reuse, conserve, protect. And people seemed to be listening. Later I found out The government of imposed a ban for bags, cutlery, cups, small bottles, sheets and other items. Some people I talked talked to were skeptical of its effectiveness, but coming from SE Asian countries where zero government regulation has been taken, let me tell you that it’s working. The level of creativity to avoid plastic was astounding. I saw very few plastic bags being given out, again 20 million people, seemingly all of them outside selling you everything all the time from toys to fruit to dustpans, animals, whatever. Customers were bringing their own bags, produce and things were wrapped in paper or recycled newspaper, disposable spoons were rigged from torn off bits of cardboard, fried lentils served on pages ripped out of a math book. It goes to show that government has its role to play on this, alternatives exist and we can change. If Mumbai can do it, any city can do it. @ Mumbai, Maharashtra

has been just as discouraging as the South East Asian countries I have been to with the blatant littering, polluted natural areas and excessive use of . I’ve seen many promising, literal signs, all over the states of and encouraging people to consume more consciously but failed to see it’s advice being headed. But I experienced a glimmer of hope today at a market in where multiple vendors were selling so many none and natural alternatives to plates, bowls and cups made from banana leaves, betel nut leaves and other . Solutions are our there, change is happening, we mustn’t be discouraged but our everyday actions must be conscious and considerate. @ Mysore, Karnataka

A great medium to tell the story about our plastic dependency.

TIẾNG VIỆT BÊN DƯỚI

This month marks a milestone for Mang Non. We are now partnered with 20 businesses (and counting!) in Da Nang and Hoi An! We are proud to assist them in making the switch from single use plastic straws to natural bamboo ones. If you want to support these eco-conscious businesses, check out our 'No Plastic Pledge Vietnam' map, which also includes establishments who are already "ahead of the curve" and using non-plastic alternatives without our help. If you're a business interested in making the bamboo switch, please let us know. Let's make Da Nang and Hoi An plastic-free!

Trng tháng này có một dấu mốc quan trọng cho Măng Non. Chúng tôi hiện đang hợp tác với 20 doanh nghiệp (và còn nhiều hơn nữa) tại Đà Nẵng và Hội An! Chúng tôi tự hào vì đã hỗ trợ họ chuyển đổi từ ống hút nhựa dùng một lần sang ống hút tre tự nhiên. Nếu bạn muốn hỗ trợ các doanh nghiệp có ý thức về môi trường này, hãy xem bản đồ “Cam kết không dùng nhựa ở Việt nam” của chúng tôi. Bản đồ này cũng bao gồm các cơ sở đã tiên phong đi đầu và sử dụng các giải pháp thay thế nhựa mà không cần chúng tôi hỗ trợ. Nếu bạn là một doanh nghiệp muốn chuyển đổi sang ống hút tre, xin vui lòng cho chúng tôi biết. Hãy chung tay vì Đà Nẵng và Hội An không có nhựa!

You know you’re doing a good thing when more and more businesses have already evolved from plastic without our help. Glad to see this mentality becoming the new norm. Stop by .danang for a dank burger and a plastic free beverage.
If your Da Nang / Hoi An business has already made the switch from plastic, message us for a featured post and a place on our plastic-free google map (coming soon).
Who will be the last business to convert?

Travelers and Expats BEWARE!! Most restaurants and hotels have refillable water jugs, and if you bring a reusable bottle and ask nicely they will probably give you some!! In addition you will save on single use plastic water bottles! Side effects may include a sense of pride in reducing your plastic footprint, contagious, example setting behavior, a sense of accomplishment by practicing and using the local language, people wanting to your friend!! You’ve been warned.

If you’re unfamiliar with the local language here’s an English phonetical break down: ‘chaw toy nook vow chai nye nay?’ Which means: give me water in this bottle please?
