Our environment crying for your help!!





Do you know?
Our household rubbish has a double impact on our environment. First, it represents a massive waste of our natural resources. Second, because we still throw out so much garbage, we’re rapidly using up precious land as rubbish tips.
That’s awful. Can we do anything to stop it?
These are some things you can do:
●Buy in bulk to reduce the number of packs and save money.
●Buy your fruit and vegetable loose instead of pre-packed in plastic.
●Put a notice on your letter box refusing junk mail.
●Buy recycled writing and photocopy paper.
●Buy re-usable or refillable pack products.
●Re-use or refuse plastic bags.
●Start composting fruit and vegetable scraps and garden cuttings.
●Don’t throw out old household goods, furniture, records, books, magazines, clothes-have a garage sale or give them to charity.

Do you know what is stormwater pollution?
If you want to know more a bout it, read this information from the Australian government.
The stormwater is the rainwater, but not the pure rainwater, it carries something. Like our detergents, oil and greace left over from washing your car on the street or driverway, and also the fertiliser that haven't been used up in your garden. You can't always see the pollution, so you should be carefull of your detergents and fertiliser, and choose a right place to wash your car.
Except these, we can do many other things, our environment need your help…
