#GreenPoem of the Week

This week, we have focused on the power of one person as in our #GreenQuote of the Week and now #GreenPoem. Our goal is to inspire you to take action and no matter how small your action may be, it's impact is great.

GreenAction

I planted trees, You planted trees; it gave us a green community
I cleaned my street, You cleaned your street; it gave us a clean community
I gave them green education, You gave them green education; it gave us an environmentally conscious community
I stopped using single-use plastics, You stopped using single-use plastics; it halved plastic pollution in our community
I practiced the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle), You practiced the 5 Rs; it solved our communities waste management problems

There are a lot of things that if I do and You do, it will accelerate sustainable development in our communities and bring about the change that we see.
Remember that “Change begins with You”. If you don’t take action, who else do you want to take action?

I can, You can, We can Change the world

You can take some time and listen to this Green Music to get inspired and make a change:
