The document proposes a marketing plan called "Zero Waste, Think Waste Segregation" to address Thailand's solid waste problem. The plan aims to reduce total waste by 92% in two years through a mass media campaign promoting waste segregation. It would provide separate bins for households and educate students. The marketing mix would include currency from recyclables, discounts for participating stores, and fines for non-compliance. The goal is to increase awareness of waste segregation's benefits like cost savings and a cleaner environment.
