[Coughing sound, having a difficulty to breath.]
Have you ever experienced that like what I did just now? You are trying
your best to breath but all that is coming inside your lungs is poisonous
smoke and smelly air full of dirts and germs.
It may be a cliche but that is what is going on at this juncture. Some
people seem to be so ignorant and are not realising how they are affecting our
Mother Earth. As quoted from Jacques-Yves Cousteau, Water and air, the
two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage
cans. Imagine how a garbage can looks like and put water and air into
context. That is undeniably really bad. As shown in a study on
Now, people talk about the cause and effects. All the pointing of fingers
to who should be responsible of what has been done. For today, let us talk
about how we as students can contribute for the better of our environment.
Maybe before this, we are only contributing in the form of suggesting in
essays writing on what should and should not be done. Well, now, let us talk
about what we can do right here, right now and maybe later.
Firstly, right now, I am sure some of us have water bottles with us.
When we are done with the bottle, try to put it, not throw it, into a recycling
bin. Do not leave it lying on the floor just like that. Try to have an initiative of
collecting water bottles or other recyclable materials at home or even in our
class at school. Later on, we can send them to a recycling centre. Believe me,
the feeling is way beyond being happy just because you will get money for
recycling and handing them in, but you will have this beautiful feeling inside
you as you know that you have just contributed a little something for the
better of the environment.
Well, hopefully there are a few things that we can benefit from what i
have been speaking about for the past few minutes. One significant thing is
how we, as students can contribute to the well-being of our environment and
that all of us should be aware of the importance of our environment. I shall
end my speech with the saying Destruction is a man's will, Nevertheless
Prevention is also a man's will,Its a man's choice to choose between
Destruction and Prevention.
Thank you, Assalamualaikum.
