In reality, a small city state like Singapore is powerless to slow down global warming, we cannot even prevent the haze that’s coming from our neighbours. What we can do as individuals or as a group is to clean-up our mangroves, do reforestation projects, reintroduce native trees and shrubs back into our schools, parks and open spaces so that our native fauna can slowly return.
We can do reforestation and social projects in our region to help badly degraded landscapes and native hill tribes improve their standard of living. We can take part in a direct action ongoing programme called “WHISTLEBLOWER” where we identify and report polluters, illegal environmental activities and other socially unacceptable behavior to the relevant authorities.
Let’s not just sit back and take it, let’s bring the fight to these selfish irresponsible behaviors.
As individuals, we can make a difference and we don’t need anyone’s permission to do this. If you believe that you can make a difference and are prepared to get your feet wet and hands dirty – then join us in our regular activities.
To be kept updated of our regular activities, please email me (grant@singapore.com) your name and DOB.
INDIVIDUALS CAN and DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
