Plogging 2025

Participating in a recent plogging event is a powerful reminder of the positive impact collective action can have on our environment. We gathered as a community, bringing together individuals from diverse backgrounds united by a common goal: to contribute to a cleaner, greener future– or at least making a positive impact on our local park by picking up trash while jogging.

It is amazing to see how picking up even a small piece of trash can make a difference, a sentiment that relates with the Malay proverb “sedikit-sedikit, lama-lama jadi bukit.” No matter how small, individual actions can accumulate, promoting a sense of community and shared responsibility to create significant change. Even a few minutes dedicated to responsible waste management could lead to a collective impact beyond our expectations.

Let’s take a moment to celebrate the impact we created together:
Waste Collected:
📄 Paper: 1.0 kg
🧴 Plastic: 2.5 kg
🥫 Aluminium/Tin: 0.5 kg
🍾 Glass: 1.0 kg
🚮 General Waste: 19.5 kg

Estimated Carbon Footprint Reduction:
♻ From recycling alone, we saved 7.39 kg of CO₂
🚶 From walking instead of driving, we saved another 11.55 kg of CO₂

We encourage everyone to consider participating in plogging to contribute to a more sustainable future. Every little action counts!🗑️♻️
