Colleagues from the New Media Department of Lingjiu Mountain and the World Religions Museum Development Foundation set out to clean the beach. More than 20 people happily cleaned the beach facing the sea, and picked up 178 kilograms of garbage in just one hour.

Lin Bingyi, Director of the Executive Office of the World Religions Museum Development Foundation, said that in March 2002, the Lingjiu Mountain World Religions Museum established the "Global Family for Love and Peace" (Global Family for Love and Peace) international NGO non-governmental organization, from the perspective of human sustainability, Starting from the goal of earth peace, we bring together elites from all walks of life to promote social services.

Lin Bingyi said that in addition to religious dialogue and humanitarian aid, he also promotes the "nine life propositions" of tranquility, love, dialogue, vegetarianism, regeneration, energy conservation, carbon reduction, water conservation, and greening. The earth, like humans, is an organic living body. Cleaning the beach is healthy and environmentally friendly, so we call on colleagues to clean up the beach and love the earth. Everyone takes specific actions to protect the ocean and the earth's ecology, so that the earth can recuperate. We look forward to more people participating in the action of reducing plastic and cleaning the beach.

Wang Caitang, who participated in the beach cleanup for the first time, said that plastic bags are the most commonly used but also the most difficult to recycle. In fact, the original invention of plastic bags was to "save the earth", hoping to protect forests from excessive deforestation. Plastic bags replaced paper bags. I think that people's continuous abuse of plastic resources for a long time has also turned an invention that was originally born to protect the environment into a problem that endangers the ocean.

Huang Chunzhi from Tucheng said that garbage will not disappear out of thin air, and the treatment of waste is far behind the speed of generation. Before consuming and discarding, one should think carefully about how to reduce the use, recycle and remanufacture, and cherish life. source of elimination.
