Bahrain’s municipal bodies are reigniting efforts to implement a nationwide colour-coded waste bag system across households and businesses, a long-debated plan aimed at revolutionising the kingdom’s waste management strategy.
The initiative, first discussed in July last year, was shelved due to logistical concerns and lack of public awareness.
However, it is now back on the table, with a reinvigorated push led by Southern Municipal Council chairman Abdulla Abdullatif, who is working with his counterparts in Muharraq and the Northern Governorate, alongside the Capital Trustees Board, to roll out the project.
“This isn’t just about changing the colour of rubbish bags, it’s about transforming how our society views and handles waste,” Mr Abdullatif told the GDN.
