Climate Change
Our world is facing climate change as in global warming which seems to speed up by each new year. Deforestation, greenhouse gases, dispose of plastic in seas and many other actions have led to and will be leading to more serious consequences.
Although this topic is one of the least discussed amongst the community of Pakistan, however in our centres students are made aware and they discuss such issues and how they can be solved. Students had been looking up ways to solve and cope with these environmental issues and one of the best ways they found was to plant green trees and vegetation. They looked up on internet about how to take care of the plant in order for it to grow properly and healthy. Even learned about the process of Photosynthesis.
Planting Seeds
Another objective that the students and the volunteers came up with was that the students can plant different vegetables such as garlic, onion, mint, tomatoes etc and then once they grow they can take these vegetables home and use them, thus saving some grocery costs for their household and parents. Students were really happy with this idea as they wanted to help their parents.
Students then got some pots made from mud and using soil they planted several seeds in those pots. Once the seeds turn into saplings they plan to take the saplings around the neighbourhood and plant them in safe places where they can grow and get proper sunlight and water.
This was a informative as well as responsible activity which brought forth many things for all age group students to learn.
