Team Eco Alternatives met up with students of PSBB for a earth-friendly discussion. We couldn’t help being impressed at the encouragement provided by the school. Spreading awareness on the need to use eco-friendly products in daily life, and children working on viable projects that would promote a healthy environment were the main topics of discussion.
A report by a student:
PRESENTATION BY ECO ALTERNATIVES
On the 17th of June 2011, Ms. Vaani Anand and Ms. Sukhada Parthasarathy, founders of Eco Alternatives conducted a session on 'leading eco-friendly lifestyles'. I found the programme interesting. They began with a story about a boy who saved starfish that were washed to the shore, and how he was able to make a difference as an individual. They went on to tell us about how Planet Earth and Mother Nature were gifts to humankind. We were then enlightened with facts and statistics on the degradation of our flora and fauna. The speakers reiterated that it is WE who must take the initiative to act towards saving the environment and not wait for other organisations to do it. Taking out a leaf from their own lives, they explained small things that we could all do, for example, carry our own shopping bags. The session was an enriching one visually too as the presentation contained a vast set of pictures. We thoroughly enjoyed the session and their words and suggestions had a lot of impact on us.
