RE: Steemit Engagement Challenge Season2 #week2 | Markdown Style Contest: Cleaning Garbage in Lhokseumawe Reservoir and Ujong Blang Beach |
Hello @ayijufridar, I love the work done by your team at the beach and the reservoir. It’s a pity that the same beach we go there to enjoy the fresh breeze from the water, at the end turn to become a garbage park due to poor management. It is a good thing that your team choses to clean up this for better use.
Aquatic lives matter a lot and must be protected. It is a good thing that your team provided residents with large plastic containers which will go a long way to create awareness for people to drop their waste in the containers. Courage for the work well done to protect the environment.
The Indonesian Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) stated that in 2021 the amount of waste in Indonesia will almost reach 70 million tons and the trend is predicted to continue to rise. most of that waste cannot be recycled. Imagine what would happen if people's awareness of using plastic is still low.
I forgot to tell you when we took action to clean the sea, there were fishermen who complained, that in their nets, there was always garbage, even though they wanted to catch fish.
Thank you @chant. About 70 percent of our earth consists of water, let's take care of it.
The funny thing is that those fishermen are always there and cannot mobilise to clean it. We need to continue sensitisation while also putting efforts together to clean our environment. Regards
I worry that fishermen are making the ocean their biggest trash can instead of cleaning it up. If every day they only pick up one piece of trash in the sea while catching fish, they contribute greatly to the cleanliness of the sea.
Yes, they need to support clean the sea but it seems they are complaining but doing nothing about it.
