Let’s keep our environment clean

This tourist has taught us an important lesson — everyone can play their part in keeping the environment clean.

While it is important to clear the beach’s trash and litter, it is vital that we do not litter in the first place.

Not only does it pollute the sea, animals might mistake trash for food and ingest them, causing them to die.

Thus, let’s do our part to keep the environment clean and protect it as well.
