MAZINGIRA SAFI [CLEAN ENVIRONMENT]

 

Uendelevu	Sustainability
Tabia nchi	Climate change
Uchafuzi	Pollution
Nishati mbadala	Renewable energy
Uhifadhi	Conservation
Urejelezaji	Recycling

1. Wajibika kwa kuweka mazingira yako safi. Ukipata taka zilizotupwa mahali zisipofaa, zichukue na uzitupe mahali zinapofaa. Jitolee kwa usafishaji katika mazingira yako.

 

2.   Usitupe taka ovyo ovyo. Epuka kutupa takataka mahali popote, kwa mfano ukunywa maji kutoka kwa chupa ya plastiki, usiitupe barabarani, au ukila pipi, usitupe karatasi njiani. Beba takataka zako ukazitupa mahali zinapofaa.

 

3.   Punguza matumizi ya plastiki. Ikiwa ni lazima utumie plastiki, usitumie mara moja na kutupa, tumia mara kadhaa ili kupunguza plastiki zinazotupwa na kuchafua mazingira.

 

4.   Panda mti. Miti husaidia kuokoa nishati, kusafisha hewa, na kusaidia kukabiliana na mabadiliko ya hali ya hewa.

 

 

1.      Be responsible for keeping your environment clean. If you find trash thrown in the wrong place, pick it up and throw it in the right place—volunteer to clean up your environment.

2.     Don't litter. Avoid throwing garbage anywhere; for example, drinking water from a plastic bottle, don't throw it on the street, or if you eat candy, don't throw paper on the road. Instead, carry your trash and throw it where it belongs.

3.     Reduce the use of plastic. If you must use plastic, don't use it once and throw it away; use it several times to reduce the amount of plastic thrown away and pollutes the environment.

4.     Plant a tree. Trees help save energy, clean the air, and help combat climate change.
