Thematic: National Clean up Month

 Many people think that to protect the environment you need to do something big. But that is not the only solution. Even tiny individual steps on a small scale can really help to save our environment. You just need to bring little changes in your habits and lifestyle. Here are some ways you can be of service to the environment:

• Always remember the 3R’s: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Think of all the waste you can reduce if you simply follow them.
• Make sure to switch off the lights and fans before leaving the classroom. If your class has enough sunlight, you don't need to turn on the lights.
• Try eco-friendly and sustainable fashion. Instead of buying artificial fibers clothing, use natural fibers such as cotton, bamboo, linen, hemp, etc s they degrade easily.
• Always carry a waste bag with you. I have seen many students throwing their litter on playground, roads, parks, etc.
• Carry your own cloth bag for shopping and if possible buy from local vendors. Reducing your meat and dairy consumption will help a lot as these industries .
• Buy or have your own water bottle so you wont need to buy water bottles.

 By cleaning, we can help to reduce the pollution. An unclean environment leads to a bad condition of a society, arrival of diseases and many more related problems.

 it is important to dispose our trash properly so that it is not scattered everywhere and may even end up in the sea and affect the fishes.

 Plants improve the environment in many ways, like  releasing oxygen into the atmosphere, absorbing carbon dioxide — all things we need to sustain life on Earth. Thats why we need to water it properly.

Planting is important because they  provide us with a variety of things to fulfil our daily requirements, including the air we breathe, providing nutrients for animals, regulating the water cycle and many products for human benefit. Plants are the primary producers, and all other living organisms on this planet depend on plants.

 Saving water can save us money and diverts less water from our rivers, bays, and estuaries, which helps keep the environment healthy
