​I have been reducing the use of plastic and take place the plastic by separated according to its material. Then I manage the garbage that can still be used again.
​I have been starting to keep the environment by taking place garbage in the right place. I also make green condition at home. I also do recycling the unused goods become useful goods and wish that the people are more concerned about the environment by replacing plastic with the other goods.
