Interfacing Development Interventions for Sustainability Knowledge Management officer Yvette Balayon-Mahinay , together with Watershed Network coordinator Judy Ann Enriquez-Legaspi and Policy Advocacy officer Milky Shayne Gindon, urges the candidates of the incoming Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections during this week's Kapehan sa Dabaw at SM City Davao to use sustainable practices by not using tarpaulins for their campaign materials.
She cited a study conducted by the EcoWaste Coalition, where it was found that PVC tarpaulins contain high levels of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals especially phthalates which are extremely carcinogenic to human health. The group calls on candidates and their supporters, including the voters, not to leave campaign materials as litter and to conduct thorough cleanup activities and ensure the proper collection and disposal of their campaign materials, including flyers and posters after the election.
It also stated that there is a need to ensure that proper disposal of these campaign materials is observed to avoid contributing to more waste products and to promote effective waste management in the city.
