Do you remember the below picture? Image 1. I do. I'm old enough to.

In those 25 years, what has the lagos state government done about effective recycling and trash disposal?

It's even funnier you think I'm not aware of the cop28 conference that just happened

You say this is about the environment. Yes it is.

Are you aware though that the co2 emissions of usa is 25 times higher than ours as at 2019?

I'm all out for banning Styrofoam. It's a physical menace in lagos.

Have you asked why the ban on Styrofoam in certain top tier countries around the world?



What else uses hydrocarbons? Check image 2

But take note of the word SLOW TO DEGRADE.

Here's a little statistics for you

According to the EPA, in 2018, the U.S. generated 80,000 tons of polystyrene waste in the form of containers, while less than 5,000 tons of it was actually recycled.

So the usa exceeds nigeria in both co2 emissions and Styrofoam waste. No surprise there.

So why don't they just recycle?

While polystyrene is known to be cost-effective, it's unfortunately very difficult and costly to recycle (despite being stamped with the #6 “chasing arrows” symbol).
Most recycling facilities are unable to process EPS because, unlike other plastics, it's challenging to get back in its base form. Few MRFs and other recycling facilities have invested in the compacting/densifying equipment required to reform foam blocks, and the entire process is time-consuming and expensive.

So they can't recycle it because they'd rather fund wars.
They can't chuck it on a landfill because it's not pretty and it leaks chemicals into the landfill.
And won't litter their environment with it
How about burning it?

Check image 3

That brings us back to they can't fund burning it efficiently because they'd rather fund wars.

So do what? Ban it. They've made enough money from it anyways.

This brings me back to waste disposal.

You ban Styrofoam in Nigeria, you get a rise in other toxic waste materials dumped in the environment causing harm to its people

This is bad for a country with very little efficient waste disposal and recycling systems.

Ban Styrofoam yes. Then what? Won't that increase our dependency on plastic? Do Nigerians know paper plates are a more environmentally friendly option? What happens to our rising landfills? What happens to those smelly corners of waste on streets and estates?

Zero awareness. Zero reasoning. Zero education. Zero planning. Zero execution. Just straight up ban. Why? Government say e no good.

No different from the half reasoned declaration of 'subsidy is gone'. Here we are, months after, paying 9 times the price of fuel AND STILL paying subsidy. Do you not realise yet that the rise in electricity tariff is a result of that thoughtless declaration? Guess what? The government is paying subsidy on electricity too.
Did you know subsidy on electricity was quietly removed according to the last administration? Guess who paid more for subsidy in q2 of 2023.

My point? Thoughtless directives like immediate ban on Styrofoam would only put us in deeper sh!t

Okay, I’d take my time to read on this. Thanks for the breakdown.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment & Water Affairs should calm down and take things easy. This is peoples solely source of income and I believe there should be time frame to this.

They should take it easy when the source of income is killing people and the environment?

Some things need urgent interventions and policies will surely affect some people but it’s better for the long term benefits and overall good.

Pure faced stvpidity

You won't blame the government for not providing recycling centres, or providing a working trash disposal system, or creating incentives to encourage proper disposal of trash, you'd rather use this dull analogy to justify a thoightless governmental order.

Yes, ban it. But u can't say the government has done the bare minimum to provide a proper trash disposal system for everyone.

Do you see Styrofoam littered on Victoria island to lekki phase 1? Because there are good roads. Good roads encourage trash disposal trucks to provide their services to people there.

Are there good roads on the mainland that have this Styrofoam menace?

Think b4 u type stvpid things on the Internet.

This is not about disposal alone

Advanced countries like US, Canada, Germany, UK etc are taking the same step of reducing plastic consumption. You need to be informed please. Your argument is dead on arrival.
Please don’t argue to win desperately, try to know when an argument is not making any meaning and be open to correction and improvement.

Please read from the world economic forum; cutting plastic consumption is one of the major agenda

Think local restaurants and the stock of Styrofoam they have to provide affordable take outs for their customers.

Mind u, I think it costs 100/150ngn per Styrofoam pack rn. 300ngn per plastic pack. Same time last year, Styrofoam packs cost 50ngn per pack, and 100/150ngn for plastics.

Now those local restaurants will have to dispose off their stock. What do you think will happen to the wholesale price of plastics if the cheaper alternative is immediately eradicated?
What do you think will happen to the price of the plastic takeaway packs that local restaurant sells?

Now lagos has approx 20 million people. I can assure you that about 500 thousand visit different local restaurants daily.

Those 500 thousand would get to local restaurants and be met by a new price increment. They've been facing new price increments every week since the inception of this new govt. And now they're facing a new one, because of a thoughtless Styrofoam ban.

Before you type anyhow reply, just read my reply to another anyhow response about this ban immmediately above this one

You sound so analytical, so you should know the harmful effects of plastics and the foam to both health and environment. So with your analysis, does it worth it really?

The world is talking about sustainability, reducing carbon footprints and environmental pollution. This policy is in the right direction

Terrifying to say the least. Why not accept how you look and stop trying to bypass nature.

There’s nothing wrong in trying to modify your looks. The body is just a vessel.
If someone is born with abnormal body features like bow legs or twisted faces or worse things, they can always go to surgery and correct it.
I’m not saying what this people did make sense, I’m just telling you it’s not all cases you accept your look when surgery could be done to correct some defects

Her adversary is ignorant and certainly did a poor job on the research about her cultural background by not knowing that if you underestimate her and attempt to cheat her , you do so at your own peril. She's Yoruba and Nigerian for God's sake!

She should appeal all the other reliefs that the tribunal rejected. She must not give up, she will get justice at last. FG should investigate Johnson & Johnson to appropriately address any future relationship Nigeria will have or not have with Johnson & Johnson.

These pastors are so influential.
They have acquired the brains of people in sensitivity positions all over the country.
For example, it is almost impossible to mess with Adeboye in this current age. Adeboye can commit murder and escape justice easily. His worshipers are everywhere like plagues.
But no matter how long darkness hold, light will eventually come to drive it away.
The days of Adeboye, Chris Oyakilome and many more are numbered, they will all fade away gradually and their disgrace is inevitable.

But you see that theme about love and faith TB JOSHUA finished work.

If a mad man give you fresh bread, will you collect it to eat?

The person you claim is preaching love is a monster that tortured people, raped young girls and abused his own daughter.
You sound like someone that has gone through years of abuse, hence, you lack love and have never experienced it. If not you will never call love and TB Joshua in the same sentence
