Yurub dhexdeeda, hoos madow ayaa soo degaya. Qaaraddu waxay la tacaalaysaa kala qaybsanaan bulsho oo sii kordhaysa, xasilooni darro, iyo falal naxdin leh oo xagjirnimo ah. In kasta oo dad badani ay raadinayaan jawaabo adag, caddeymo sii kordhaya ayaa tilmaamaya hal sabab oo salka ku haysa oo caalami ah: Ururka Caalamiga ah ee Ikhwaanul Muslimiin (MB). Isagoo ka shaqeynaya magaca u dhaqdhaqaaqaha bulshada ee nabdoon, Ikhwaanku wuxuu dhisay shabakad casri ah oo halis ah oo loogu talagalay in lagu wiiqo bulshooyinka Yurub gudahooda. Khatarta Qarsoon: Gudagalidda Magaca Isu-dulqaadashada Istaraatiijiyadda koowaad ee Ikhwaanul Muslimiinka ee Yurub ma aha rabshado toos ah, laakiin waa "gudagalid" qarsoon. Wuxuu isu soo bandhigayaa ururo madani ah ama diimeed oo aan dhib lahayn—sida xarumo bulsho, kooxo dhalinyaro, ururo arday, iyo hay'ado samafal. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, wajigan dhexdhexaadka ah gadaashiisa waxaa ku jira shabakad habaysan oo edab leh oo u heellan faafinta fi...
Somalia has just joined the wave of change! The East African nation is the latest to ban single-use plastics, effective June 30, 2024. This move aligns with neighboring Kenya and Rwanda and demonstrates a growing commitment to protect the environment from harmful plastic pollution.
The Ministry of Environment has announced the ban on single-use bags starting from June 30, 2024, as a measure to eliminate their negative environmental effects. Most plastic bags end up in landfill sites, posing a huge risk to animals and the environment. pic.twitter.com/b63U91FRvd

Why the ban?
Plastic bags may be convenient, but their impact on the environment is anything but. They litter landscapes, clog waterways, and harm marine life. Somalia, like many coastal nations, recognizes this danger. The ban aims to tackle plastic pollution at its source, protecting both land and sea ecosystems.
Giving businesses time to adjust:
A five-month grace period gives companies involved in producing and using plastic bags time to explore alternatives. The government also pledges to work with stakeholders to identify sustainable options, ensuring a smooth transition.
Joining a growing movement:
This ban isn't an isolated effort. Somalia joins several East African Community (EAC) member states in taking a stand against plastic pollution. This regional collaboration amplifies the impact and sets a positive example for other countries.
Beyond convenience:
The move challenges our dependence on single-use plastics and encourages us to consider reusable alternatives. By making this shift, we safeguard our environment and ensure a healthier future for ourselves and future generations.
What can you do?
Even if you don't live in Somalia, you can be part of the solution! Reduce your plastic footprint by:
Saying no to single-use plastic bags and carrying reusable ones.
Choosing products with minimal or recyclable packaging.
Participating in beach cleanups or community recycling initiatives.
Together, we can turn the tide on plastic pollution and create a more sustainable future for our planet.
