The environment in our country and other countries in the world is becoming increasingly complex, the environmental quality of many areas at some points has exceeded the allowable threshold. The process of socio-economic development in recent times has put great pressure on the environment, leading to the environmental quality of many areas, including our country, exceeding the allowable threshold and at times no longer being able to receive waste.
Ms. Phan Thi Thuy Nga propagates and disseminates a number of articles in the Law on Environmental Protection 2020.
The Law on Environmental Protection 2020 was issued by the 14th National Assembly on January 17, 2020 with 16 Chapters and 171 articles. The Law clearly stipulates that the classification of solid waste in households and individuals is no longer encouraged but is mandatory.
In Article 6, the Law on Environmental Protection stipulates prohibited acts in environmental protection activities: Transporting, burying, filling, dumping, discharging, and burning solid waste and hazardous waste not in accordance with technical procedures and regulations of the law on environmental protection.
In Article 60, Clause 1, from item a to item d, it is stipulated for households and individuals as follows: Minimize and classify solid waste at source, collect and transfer classified waste to the right place; Minimize, treat and discharge domestic wastewater to the right place; do not let pets cause unsanitary conditions in residential areas;
Do not emit exhaust fumes, cause noise, vibration and other impacts that pollute the environment and adversely affect the surrounding community;

Article 75 of the law stipulates that solid waste from households and individuals will be classified into 3 groups: Solid waste that can be reused or recycled; food waste; and other solid waste...
On July 7, 2022, the Government issued Decree 45 regulating administrative sanctions for violations in the field of environmental protection.
“Therefore, to protect the environment, take advantage of recycled waste sources, raise awareness and perception of households and people to classify solid waste at home is extremely necessary,” Ms. Nga emphasized.

At the same time, the school board is requested to include 2-3 sessions a week in the teaching content for students with the motto "slow and steady wins the race" to help students understand and remember to work with their families to properly implement the regulations of the Law on Environmental Protection.
“Because if each household and individual understands and takes small actions to classify waste before collecting and processing it, it will have a great meaning in reducing waste to the environment, contributing to protecting the environment to always be fresh, clean, beautiful, practically improving the health and longevity of themselves and their family members,” said Ms. Nga.
