For the past one month, I have attended many open house parties. Some are hosted by people or organisations that are championing good environmental practices and sustainability lifestyle. I have high regard for many of them as they have been promoting sustainable development tirelessly and with commitment. Many of us believe that inculcating value about good sustainable practice shall start with own self and with small daily encountering. We can reduce the usage of water and resources, or reuse durable and usable items or recycle or even eat little and healthier. A simple gesture will do as our contribution towards the Mother Earth.
While saying is easy, doing it is always difficult if the little gesture has not inbuilt with our conscience and way of life. I was taken aback seeing parties are I attended using polystyrene containers for food serving, plastic wrapping extensively for door gifts and buffet-style of meal. If years in years out we are still practicing this during festive celebration, I would not think we can change for better, in terms of sustainable lifestyle.
