This project has included activities such as installing litter traps, providing education and encouraging waste separation to reduce waste in the Tha Chin River before it flows into the sea. Since February 2024, the project has prevented more than 31.67 tonnes of waste from entering the Gulf of Thailand (as of the end of April 2025). Additionally, the Bank has extended the value of waste through participation in the Don’t Cry I Care sustainable waste separation project and established community recycling banks to create sustainable waste management practices.
