Week 6 Blog

I've always been keen on the idea of recycling items but simply never did as I felt it was troublesome and tedious. In addition, my family and I never had the time to sort out our trash and had been throwing all our rubbish down the normal rubbish chute. 

With my sister done with her 'O' Levels and most of my assignments submitted, we worked together to sieve out the family's trash, separating recyclable items such as milk cartons and cardboard boxes from the normal trash. We then accumulated the recyclable items in plastic bags in preparation for recycling. At the end of the week, we went down to the recycling bin to deposit the recyclables.

I felt content and fulfilled having done my part for the environment and I will try to make this a practice every week, conserving the metals, plastic and cardboard which can be re-purposed while reducing the wastage of space in the landfill. Though our actions are small, I believe that when we all come together, we can definitely make a positive and tangible impact on the environment.
