WEEK 7 : Role of Individuals in achieving SDGS

Assalamualaikum 💖

Hye everyone! How are you today? I hope all of you in a good health and don't forget to stay safe wherever you are! :'))

  So today, I wanna share about individual roles in achieving SDGs. As we know, individual efforts can greatly contribute towards achieving the SDGs. The solutions  to the problems that affect sustainable development should not depend solely to the social, economic and environment but its include ourself too.  Therefore our commitment and awareness is needed to achieve truly sustainable development. 

HOW INDIVIDUAL CAN CONTRIBUTE IN ACHIEVING SDGs ? 

1. Get information about SDGs

    First of all, all individuals can play their role by getting information about SDGs in life. Learning about Sustainable Development is very interesting. Thus, it will make us more aware about current issues that happen in our country. From my experience, I really enjoyed learning Sustainable Development subject because it helps me to always appreciate and take care of nature. and I really love this Subject! Besides, we not only can learn about SDGs in university, but we can explore it by ourselves. For example, doing research about SDGs and watching videos regarding SDGs in Youtube and others.  Not only that, we also can share information about SDGs to our family, friends and others about SDGs to make sure that all of them are aware about Sustainable Development. So, it is crucial for us to seek knowledge about SDGs because it will give a lot of benefits in our life. 

2.  Practice Reduce, Reuse, Recycle in life. 

   These three are the best way to make a positive impact on our environment. It’s crucial to put these into practice, as landfill space is quickly running out, the plastic pollution in our oceans are increasing, and our environment is deteriorating at a faster pace. 

REDUCE 

   First of all, all individuals can play their role by reducing on whatever their can reduce in life. It is important to make sure that we do not waste the resources such as food waste, electric waste and others. . For example, we can reduce food waste. The majority of people dont realize that food waste rots in landfill and releases methane, which is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Landfill space is filling up and we are running out of places to put all of our waste. Therefore, an easy way to reduce food waste is to start composting. All of these action really  help to achieve SDGs . 

REUSE

Next, we can practice reuse everything that we have in life. Instead of using one-time use items, like plastic water bottles or plastic grocery bags, opt in for a reusable option. For example, our future shopping trips can become less wasteful by reusing plastic bags. We can put it in our car so we can use it before entering the store. Moreover, reusing jars such as sauces, salsas, etc come in make great storage jars as well because jars are awesome for storing home-made items.

                                                 

RECYCLE 

   Besides, the next action that can be practised is recycling things that we have. Newspaper are one of the easiest materials to recyle. It can help to save up to 60 percent of the energy required to make brand new newspaper. In addition, recycle also can be practised at school. For example, every eating space, classrom, and office should have plenty of bins available for recycling paper. Therefore, this activity will teach the student about the importance of recycling. Recycling is crucial to provide all of us with a greener and healthier community. We should protect our nature to make sure that future generation also will get the same benefits too. 

 

 

   Therefore, we as individual must play a good role so that we can achieve SDGs together.  I thinks that's all from me! Hope that this blog will give all of you awareness about Sustainable Development and do something beneficial that will help to achieve SDGs. Thankyou! :')💘💘
