I can’t say it any better than this – more about why I love the new year’s venture I posted about yesterday. It’s great to see Nepal’s youth taking such initiative. Go read this:

Happy New Year 2072!
in daily life, environment, Kathmandu
On the first day of the Nepali New Year 2072 (April 14th, 2015 by the English calendar), the Nepali government imposed a ban on plastic bags within the Kathmandu Valley. This is wonderful news and a great way to ring in the new year — anyone who has been here knows the litter issues that exist. I’m encouraged to see how much this has already been implemented in just one week since it came into effect last Monday, and I hope it spreads to the whole of Nepal.
Happy new year to us all!
