Recycle

Today is my first time joining a charity activity organized by a Buddhist association. I am going to give a helping hand to collect the material for recycle purpose from the neighborhood. There are 25 of us taking part in this meaningful activity today. We start our journey early in the morning and we are divided into groups of 5. Then we are briefed for a while concerning the work and activity today. Our destination will be at old flat which located nearby our campus--Serdang area.

Here, it is a housing area which consists of few blocks of shop lots and apartments. As soon as we reached there, I followed my group leader together with my team members to visit the house one by one in order to collect material that can be recycled from the neighborhood. We knock the door one by one to ask if they have anything for recycle. Most of them are very sincere and caring where they get all the things well-packed for us. After we gather all the thing at the corner of the staircase, we line up along the staircase and pass the thing one by one until it reach the groundfloor. Since we do it as a team, we get that job done in a few minutes! Ha! Cant imagine that we could finish that job that fast. Within 2 hour, we manage to collect all the recycle materials from the neighborhood.

I really feel grateful for their concerns and cooperation in which they have packed all the materials for us that make the work more easy for us to collect it from them. This experiance personally make me feel that there are so many people that still concern for our environment and aware about global warming. Although this activity overall is tiring and exhausting, we did enjoy it in such a way that we believe we have done something that make this earth beautiful especially this is a good deed that belongs to everyone of us.

Everyone of us can do a lots to help reduce global warming. First, we need to conserve electric power, water and do switch off the light or power whenever it is not in used. Secondly, recycle the materials such as plastic, tins, bottles, clothes and etc and most importantly reduce the usage of polisterene. Do think twice before u throw anything to the dustbin as it may be recycled. These are just simple acts that everyone of us can do daily.
