The International Day of Zero Waste aims to promote sustainable consumption and production patterns and raise awareness about how zero-waste initiatives contribute to the advancement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
On September 21, 2019, several groups around the world rallied together to take part in beach cleanups in celebration of International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) Day. The United Nations Country Team in Jamaica was once again onboard to support this movement to raise awareness about poor solid waste management and catalyze action by local citizens to control, reduce and prevent marine litter and plastic pollution.
