The enthusiastic budding eco-activists from my school, DPS Sharjah lined up to actively participate in the "Clean Up The World" campaign organized by the Dubai Municipality and supported by the UNEP on 13^th November 2014 at the Mamzar Beach, Dubai.

Over 60 of us students were active enough to do our bit towards saving Mother Earth. We arrived at the Mamzar Beach and the girls were taken to clean up one side of the beach, while the boys grabbed another spot to carry out the Clean Up campaign. Mr. Nasir, from the Waste Management Dept., Dubai Municipality organized and supported this event thereby ensuring its smooth functioning.

 As all of were provided apt and sober T-shirts and Caps for this event, everyone looked uniform and ready to nurture nature. Hence, we students from DPS Sharjah helped to reduce the carbon footprint and learnt a lot about waste management.

The boys, on their side of the beach, also met Mr. Ghaffur, who seemed quite an enthusiast belonging to this campaign. After the collection of all the litter, we placed the garbage bags below a signboard that said, "Say Yes to Cleaning" which clearly indicates the intention of spreading awareness amongst the Generation-Y about the importance of a litter-free environment. We also shouted out slogans and cheers for a clean, green and sustainable, school, community, emirate, nation and world.

In a nutshell, through a practical excursion, I along with my school mates was able to gain practical knowledge about the pros and cons of preserving in Mother Nature because I always believe that, "The Nature of Our Future Depends on The Future Of Our Nature"
