Haze Condition in Singapore Bedok South Ave 1, looking west Towards Marine Parade at12:04PM on 24 June Same vantage point on 21 June 2013 at 10:35 AM, when the haze was at hazardous levels.

Proposals Idea 1: Host a monthly events at different communities for the residents to participate and promote awareness on the degrading impacts of overuse and proper waste disposal. Performance based on the issue. Competitions on making innovative items out of recycled materials. Skit

Proposals Idea 2: Impose Taxes on items that are unable to be recycled in shops and factories and make the price of recyclable items more affordable. government subsidy to fund Try it out in a small area such as the heartland to see how efficient it is

Proposals Idea 3:Put the picture/slogan etc on packaging of non- biodegradable bulky items for sale at the back of the item, list the consequences of buying this item.
