Youth For Change Educational Centre
6 Students of Youth for Change Educational Centre – school located in Kumasi – Ghana, have decided to embark on waste separation initiative to help save mother nature. Indiscriminate disposal of waste is a widespread problem in Ghana. Among the waste are plastics which are causing so much havoc to destruction of our fertile farm lands, animals, air pollution, etc.
The students from 10 th November decided to serve as ambassadors of change, labeled two (2) containers and placed them in their classroom. By this, they encouraged their friends to do same and avoid indiscriminate littering in the classroom and the school at large.
It is our hope that, the separated items will be reused for other purposes including using the
plastic bags for nursing of flowers for replanting at the school, the papers can also be used as part of composting which could be used as fertilizer to the school’s flowering pots.
It’s our hope that we will continue with this education at home and encourage others to take this responsibility to help safe Mother Nature.
When school resume in full session from January 2021, we will continue with this initiate to bring about change to ourselves, change to others and save mother nature.
