GREEN Activities that WE can do


INDIVIDUAL


Yes, individuals like you and me!


Do not under estimate how much we can help to contribute. Any change start from us. If we do not start change today, we will not have tomorrow for our future generations.


Starts by understanding the concept of REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE.


REDUCE

Identified our surrounding that negatively contributes to our green environment. Example plastic bag use on our daily life. If we can have choice, please do not ask (or some need to pay) if we can accommodate with our hand. Most of the plastic bag that we use when we buy in supermarket, street vendor or anything will usually end up being dispose as trash. Even if it is a paper bag, cos all paper bag are made from tree which mean some big tree out there are being cut down to make these paper bag.


REUSE

If we have a good paper bag or a plastic bag, keep it folded nicely with you. Reuse it as many time as possible before you think of disposing it as trash.


RECYCLE

Today there are many centers in your community area that collect recycle material like plastic, used paper and used aluminum can. Look for these centers where you stay.

Start collecting all these recyclable at home, segregate them and when you so happened passing these centers, bring your recyclable material to them. Most of these centers will pay you some small amount for your recyclable.


CONCLUSION

These are one of many things that you can do to help on contributing greener environment. Help to look around your surrounding. Every little thing that you can identify help our green environment, work on the REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE concept. Practice that on your daily life and it will be part of you.  

Next you can bring this awareness that you practice to your friends, neighbors, peers and anyone close to you. Now can you see how much it starts from you alone?
