On Tuesday, April 25, 2023, "Mission Verte" (Note 1), a local NGO funded by the MOL Charitable Trust (the Trust) (Note 2), released two videos on environmental pollution issues in Mauritius and ways to address those issues.

"Mission Verte" is the recipient of the Trust's first grant projects, and conducts activities such as environmental awareness sessions for people of the southeastern region of the island, promotion of the "Green Ambassadors" who patrol the area to collect garbage, and plastic waste recycling in collaboration with the local NGO "Precious Plastic Mauritius" (Note 3).

The two newly released videos were intended to raise Mauritian people's awareness on the causes and consequences of environmental pollution, and to help them develop sustainable and effective solutions and habits.
