CARE NOW PROJECT

Everybody knows that waste is a very big problem all over Asia,so it is in Indonesia.Exerts talking about a real waste management crisis.And its getting more worse and worse with growing tourism,economics and cities.Indonesia has no waste managment systems,no garbage collections as we know that from western countries,no waste seperation and you can hardly find waste bins. The local peole just throw all their trash into the nature or rivers or they burn their garbage. One of the main reasons is that the local peole do not have the awareness to taking care of their environment,the awareness for a clean and green,a waste-free and plastic-free environment.

And this is the where our project work starts with the CARE NOW project.

We can not change everything in a quick time but what we mostly want is to encourage the local community here to taking more awareness of indonesias waste problem.  

This project is very close to my heart and we started it with our fully conviction.I am a german emigrant and you maybe can imagine how difficult it is to see and understand all the rubbish everywhere and to see peole throwing rubbish in the rivers and burning their rubbish (even organic waste and toxic waste!) ,and to try to understand the local attitude. We as westerns do know about the impacts of this problem like air polution,global warming,climate change,health effects,all the plastic ends up in the oceans,etc.But the locals don`t!

They dont get any education and if some of them do, they find it difficult to change something as there is no support from the government like a good-working waste management.  

What we dont want is disabuse the community as they wont follow our project ( indonesian people wont listen to a western if they dont behave polite and just tell them you are doing wrong,you should do that!).We are trying to organise small workshops and meetings to discus these topics in a comfortable way for both sides.

WHAT IS THIS PROJECT ABOUT?  

It is about topics like conservation,protection of animals and nature,but the focus will be the education,training and support of local communities about waste,waste management,waste reduction,waste seperation,waste burning and its impact to the environment ( global warming and climate changing,air polution) same like health effects,recycling,composting (locals even burn their organic waste),waste recovery and wate reduse.

We want a clean and green environment and a trash and plastic free nature ( plastic get thrown in the rivers where fishes or chickens can eat small plastic particles which ends up in human stomaches if they eat those animals,all the plastic trash ends up in our big ozeans where it harms the ecosystem of animals and plants).

Another imortant fact is how to handle toxic trash?For the moment all toxic trash like battieries,old medicines,etc, get threatens like normal trash and is just thrown away into nature and rivers which is a disaster.There are no disposal route here to get rid off it.
