Every Day is Earth Day

 

For the past 8 Years I am committed to the protection of environment in various ways.

 

I am the founder of an initiative named

 

Serve The Earth [An Initiative for Mother Earth] since 2014

 

It is an avid group of 100, dedicated to the service to the Mother Earth. I am the:

 

Eco-Generation Regional Ambassador to the Middle since 2014,

 

Ambassador to Beeah, Sharjah since 2014,

 

Member of EEG, Dubai since 2011.

In co-ordination with the above organisations, my activities are:

Conducting regular environmental Workshops, 

Organising environmental events like Tree Planting, Recycling competitions, etc.,

Writing to local & international media, [Gulf News, The National, Khaleej Times, Gulf Today & 7Days]

Recycling the paper, plastic & cans with local recycling companies, [Over 5 Tonnes of recyclables submitted, Thousands of Plastic Bottles & Aluminum Cans recycled]

Planting trees and inducts green living among the society. [Planted over 100 trees in 7 emirates of the UAE and they are being taken care of as well].

Some of my Earth Day related achievements are:

First place winner of Sharjah Environmental Awareness Award, Individual Student category [2015]

 

First place winner of the Poster Competition organized on this Earth Day 22-Apr-17 by Indian Association Sharjah,

 

The contribution of recyclables on the Earth Day has made me one of the winners on this Earth Day 22-Apr-17 by Indian Association Sharjah.

 

I delivered a motivating lecture on the event of Earth Day at the Indian Association, Sharjah on 22-Apr-17

 

First Place Gold Medal Winner at the Youth Earth Summit Research Report Presentation Competition on Climate Change and effects on Bio-Diversity

 

 

Winner of Crazy Hat Competition on the Ozone layer Day 2016, awarded by the government of Ras Al Khaimah?s Environmental Protection and Development Authority

 

I have motivated other students regularly & they have also done their part in environmental conservation. Many of them have regularly visited my place & submitted their contributions. I had kept a record of the same & each month I declare winners in respective categories. They feel motivated & organize certificates for the winners from the recycling companies to motivate them.

 

My school DPS, Sharjah has organized used oil collection project & I contributed wholeheartedly & also motivated others also to bring used oil. This used oil will be converted into Bio Diesel to run transport on clean fuel. Due to our efforts our school has contributed a large amount and contributed to conservation of environment.

 

I regularly donate all the good condition clothes, shoes, etc.in the donation boxes provided by the government. This is another service to the environment.

 

I am conducting 3 R?s Pick & Drop Green Box for past 3 years now. Here we exchange old School books & other books with each other. As I move to 12^th Grade I give my text books to the younger student & take books from the student who has passed out from 12^th Grade. This is eco-friendly.

 

Further, I have convinced many restaurants to keep the empty plastic bottles & keep them for my collection. I collect & deposit the same for recycling. I have arrange certificates for them also from the local recycling companies.

 

Therefore, I believe in honest & sincere service to the Mother Earth. It is the cause that matters not the winning & certificates. The credit must be given to the appropriate person.

 

In conclusion, I believe that Every day is Earth Day and my actions speak louder than words. I am doing my part, Are You?
