REFLECTIVE JOURNAL 2: WASTE MANAGEMENT

Sustainable waste management is important to ensure the environment is protected. Bad waste management definitely gives bad impact towards the environment. Regardless of the bad impacts of this issue to the world, people are still acting like there is nothing happening and not aware of it.

One of the bad waste management habits that I can see around me is littering. We can always see people throwing their rubbish everywhere without guilt. Somehow my brain questioned how people litter everywhere without feeling guilty despite throwing the rubbish in the right place. It is important to highlight the issues especially in Malaysia with the majority of Muslims people. It is because Islam emphasizes the importance of cleanliness in our life. 

One of the impacts of  this bad habit is it will lead to pollution. As an example, when we go to the beach, we can see the litter around us which has been left by the people who came to the beach. Soon, the litter will affect the cleanliness of the water at the beach and it will cause pollution. 

As what I learned in my Sustainable Development class, the right way to achieve sustainable waste management is by applying the three R which are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. These 3R helps to cut down on the amount of waste we throw away. Thus, the community should practice these 3R in order to save the world. Besides, I think that it is important also to the parents, school, society and the authorities to educate and give awareness to the community. The most important is for the parents to do their part to start educating their children since they are kids by being a good role model to them. 

Hopefully, with the participation and the cooperation from all of the people, we can achieve sustainable waste management in the world especially in our beloved country, Malaysia.
