Two Sabah schools have banned disposable plastic bag use on school grounds, including in the canteens, as a first step to stop reliance on all single-use disposable plastic.

SMK Tawau signed the pledge on Sept 21, 2020, joining SMK Umas Umas in the ‘Borneo Tanpa Plastik’ (Borneo Without Plastic) campaign by environmental groups, which started in 2019.
