Kids to clean up after litterbugs
The straits Times, November 10, 2010
According to National Environment Agency (NEA), data had showed an increase in the number of young litterbugs caught. In 2006, data showed 1,835 people under the age of 21 caught littering and had increased to 4,278 last year. A survey done by NEA also showed that out of 1,800 schoolchildren, 40 percent would leave litter behind cinemas, parks and beaches. NEA overlook the problem and launched the Students Embrace Litter- Free programme, a new anti-littering campaign aimed to make schoolchildren take greater responsibility for their surroundings. It encourages schools to adopt areas in their neighbourhood where students will conduct a clean-up session at least twice annually to ensure the cleanliness of their surroundings. Similar campaigns had been launched previously but confined in school compounds or elsewhere on an ad hoc basis. 26 primary schools had indicated interest in this new campaign however, it is not compulsory for now.


I strongly agree to what NEA had done to resolve the problem of littering. Datas and surveys showed a rapid growth of young litterbugs over the years. I believe students should be educated from a young age so that they will develop the habit of keeping the environment clean and influence the correct mentally to the next generation. Otherwise, it will be a serious problem, as litters may attract harmful pest and release awful odour, these causes greater environmental problems such as breeding of mosquito and air pollution, it is harmful to human body as well. I'm sure nobody would want to live in an environment full of litter which smell like rubbish dump right? Not only NEA, schools can come out with their own programme to educated their students, parents should also set a good example and let their children  develop the habit of throwing litter into the rubbish bin. In fact, everyone should play a part in keeping our environment clean so that we can live in a litter-free environment.
