Recycling in many Asian countries

needs to improve

The good news is that education and awareness

is reasonably high

While we need to increase recycling rates, we also

need to make sure recycling materials can be

reprocessed

Recycle Mania Asia aims to have students see waste is as a ‘a resource’

To do this we need leadership from schools to

show others how this can be achieved

Welcome to Recycle Mania Asia

Supported by Keep America Beautiful and College & University Recycling Coalition

We are following in the footsteps of

Recycle Mania USA

We can motivate and increase recycling in schools

by friendly competition

Within each country, within ASEAN

and then internationally

How?

We start with six schools, we expand to one state, we grow across the country.

Each year we run a 4-week / 8-week

competition, we have a

manual and rules

Teams have to test their ideas, create videos,

engage other students

Problem solving Critical thinking Innovation & Creativity

Film Making Social Media / Digital Marketing
