During the course of our visit to different areas, knowingly or unknowingly we happens to harm nature by littering the areas we go for mental peace and to enjoy nature. For an example we go for a picnic to a sanctuary, have fun with loud music(Though we know that loud music is prohibited in sanctuaries), Drink and love to break the bottles on the rocks or throw the cans, cook there and most of the time after having a great lunch we use to leave the plates, disposable glasses and polythene here and there.
