#rosannewong BEACH CLEAN UP - SAI WAN 🧹 🧤 🧤
The last hiking trip to Sai Wan beach was two weeks ago and we were distressed and disgusted by the amount of rubbish, mainly plastic items along the coast. We have made a promise (as a family) to organise a beach clean up at Sai Wan beach and we did it yesterday. We couldn’t thank our friends and like minded buddies enough who have showed up for this beach clean up day.
Plastic bags, bottles, food containers (plastic and styrofoam) and food wrappers lying discarded along the streets and at the beach. Ultimately most of this waste ends up in the sea where it can choke fish, birds and sea creatures. This destroys the ocean’s ecosystem as sea creatures would eat bits of plastic and styrofoam mistakenly as their food and ends up back on our dining table via the seafood we eat.
Do you know PLASTIC takes about 450 YEARS or more to break down?? With this figure you could imagine how much plastic we have on earth now that is waiting at the recycling plants, which the volume can’t be handled hence overspill to landfill and ocean. Even after it does, it releases toxins into its surroundings, our earth (where we breathe, live and grow our food) and ocean (where all sea creatures live and where our seafood are derived from)
Earth is our home, she should be worthy of our dedicated care! Don’t wait until it’s too late to act, join us to save the planet that has given so much to us. We want children and future generations to be able to enjoy theWorld’s beautiful beaches, nature trails and country parks. EVERYONE CAN DO THEIR PART, yes EVERYONE and it starts from home:
1• Mindfully stop styrofoam usage
2• Mindfully reduce plastic usage
Solutions for 1 & 2 is to bring your own take away reusable containers, reusable straws (or don’t use straws at all) and reusable shopping bags.
3• Practice separation of plastic, paper and glass disposal and place it in the apartment’s recycling bins.
Lastly, if you don’t see a rubbish bin around, ALWAYS take your rubbish with you. IF ONLY we could all take care of our own rubbish, this world will be a very beautiful place for us all to live in and no one has to pick up other’s rubbish anymore.
