The Earth Protectors finally finish their mission in fall semester, 2017!
Throughout the semester, we researched on the topic of plastic pollution because we found that plastic pollution can relate to other areas of pollution, such as air pollution, ocean pollution and so on. The expansion of plastic pollution causes dramatic problems in our daily life. We feel that we should do some research and take our small steps to arouse people’s awareness on this issue. We want other people to understand the cause of the problem and realize that we should do something.
We had a tough and enjoyable time on doing the service project. Because of the weather condition, it’s extremely cold for us to work outside to paint the wall. And it takes us a lot of time on finishing even one bit of the service in great amount of time. We were thinking that the workers who need to do this job must be laborious. But we finished our service project eventually, we painted life cycle of butterfly on the way and hopefully that the kids will appreciate the picture and enjoy their learning on animals.
The experience of EACAP project is meaningful that we all learned profound knowledge through either the research or the service project. Environmental awareness gradually builds up in our mind and we are willing to take small steps on environment matters. We also want to call on you to join our team to protect our planet. Also, because of the EACAP project, our team members become good friends and we learned a lot from each other.
I liked the topic you guys picked about plastic pollution because it is a major problem in the world today. It’s also amazing how you guys painted in the cold!
You guys picked a great topic for your research because plastic pollution is a big issue in our environment. I also really liked the painting of the life cycle on the side of the shed. It looked really good
