Beach Clean up Activity by Navy Children School

We the cmca members set out to experience what we and other people have done to the precious water at Chowpatty.At 8:00 AM we left school in our school buses.We only used 2 buses so as to save fuel( a very good idea put up by Neerja ma'am).We reached Chowpatty with in 30 minutes.After that we were provided with rubber gloves,aprons and caps which we could take home.We were divided in to groups according to our sections and club names.Each club was given one sack to collect garbage.I first went close to the sand,I saw a bit of plastic and i pulled it ,it wouldnt come;it was like i was trying to pull a banyan trees root.Finally got a big plastic bag which is used to cover electronics.Then i thought i would have a look at the sea.I got a vomiting sensation the first time i picked it up from the the sea;I had a lump of black plastic which had something inside it(i did'nt look at it),something that looked like husk .This was the most disgusting thing i had ever seen i n my whole life & i felt guilty for no reason.All the garbage was taken in a BMC truck.But we did get to collect different shells .In the end my club "ECO WARRIORS"had collected a lot of garbage.Well i felt a little annoyed about how people were polluting our resources but on the whole i loved the clean up.
"Yesterday is past,
Tommorow is future,
Today is a gift that is why it is known as present."
Lets use this gift and stop polluting our natural resources cuz what ever we do today will effect us tommorow.
