Dünyadaki kaynakların hızla tükenmesi, doğanın korunması ve sürdürülebilir yaşam hedefleri doğrultusunda geri dönüşüm hayati önem taşıyor.

Geri dönüşüm, atıkların geri dönüştürülmesi ve yeniden kullanılmasıdır. Bu sadece doğal kaynakları korumakla kalmaz, aynı zamanda enerji tasarrufu sağlar ve çevre kirliliğini azaltır. Ancak bu farkındalık her bireye ulaştığında gerçekten fark yaratıyor.

''Bir damla su kendini okyanus gibi görmeli''

Bu Çin atasözü, bireyin eylemlerinin genel resmin büyük bir parçası olduğunu vurguluyor. Geri dönüşümde de durum böyledir. Tek bir kişi tarafından geri dönüştürülen bir plastik şişe küçük bir adım gibi görünebilir, ancak  

Milyonlarca insan aynı adımı atıyor, büyük etki yaratıyor.

Jacques-Yves Cousteau'nun dediği gibi:

  Gelecek, sahip olduklarımızı koruyabildiğimizde var olacaktır.

Once upon a time, an endless Ocean lay under the blue sky. The waters of this Ocean were full of colorful fish, sparkling jellyfish and huge whales. Since its waters are clear and clean, it is a perfect habitat for many marine creatures. Every day, sunlight spreads from the surface of the water into the depths, illuminating the underwater world, making the Ocean even more fascinating. There is a mysterious underwater kingdom deep in the ocean. This kingdom is home to many magical places, from moss-covered palaces to colorful coral reefs.

One day, a group of orange fish came to the middle of the Ocean. These fish came from an area where there were other marine creatures trying to escape pollution. Other inhabitants of the ocean wanted to help these orange fish and came together.

Seahorses, whales, fish, sea turtles and even corals came together and decided to help the orange fish. They all started working together to clean the Ocean. They came up with a plan to clean up the pollution, and everyone got to work using their own skills.

The little sea horse also listened to what was said and heard that his house and the sea were getting more and more polluted and that they would not be able to live there in the future. He was very scared. He got closer to his father and asked him where and how we would live. In fact, the teacher at school, the turtle, had told him that she had traveled to many seas and that the world they lived in was starting to become polluted. .So who was polluting their beautiful world? Didn't he ever think that the home of the polluting seahorse would also be polluted, and maybe they would have to leave this place? Oh my God, where would we go? He thought. He quickly went to his friends and thought they could find a solution to this problem with them.

Whale, starfish, octopus and squid were playing hide and seek in the school garden. Suddenly, his friends saw the Seahorse running towards them quickly. The seahorse joined other sea creatures and gathered with whale, starfish, octopus and squid in the school garden. "Friends," he said, "we must make a plan to combat marine pollution. Our sea is becoming more polluted every day, and this harms both us and other marine creatures." The whale continued, "Yes, you're right. What can we do to keep our sea clean?"

The seahorse replied thoughtfully, "Maybe we can organize beach cleaning events. We should tell people about the importance of keeping the seaside clean."

Whale added, "We can also encourage recycling. Recycling plastic and other waste instead of throwing it into the sea could be an important step." The seahorse smiled, "Great ideas! By acting together, we can keep our sea clean. Now is the time to act together." And so, the sea creatures in the school grounds decided to take action together to combat marine pollution and set out to consult the guardian of the ocean.

    The sea creatures swam with one mission: find the Ocean Guardian! Their trip was tough. Squid hid from hungry sharks, Starfish hitched a ride on a friendly jellyfish, and Whale chased away lampreys with powerful splashes. Finally, they reached a colorful reef – the home of Coral, the Ocean Guardian!

    Coral was an old starfish, wise and kind. The sea creatures explained the ocean's growing problem: too much trash! Coral listened sadly. "People forgot how much they need the ocean," she said softly. "Show them its beauty! Make a big underwater dance, a show of how amazing the ocean is. Let them see what they're hurting."

    The sea creatures were excited! Whale created giant waves for a dancing floor. Starfish twirled in a colorful parade. Octopus changed colors to show a clean and dirty ocean, side-by-side. Even the shy Seahorse puffed out his chest and danced with a friendly crab.

    One day, children were playing at the beach when they saw something amazing! Under the water, a magical dance was happening. The children were speechless, their eyes wide with wonder. As the dance ended, a piece of plastic floated onto the shore. One boy, remembering the beautiful show, picked it up and threw it away. "Let's clean the beach!" he said to his friends.

After the children had said that to their friends they all clustered and made a plan about how they would  clean up the beach. The plan was ready to be implemented, everyone was divided into 2 groups. First groups mission was to pick up the waste's from the beach one by one.

Second group's mission was a little more complicated, the thing they will do is to make warning signs for not people throw their trash and other kinds of wastes to there. Thus,precautions would be taken for the cleaning problem at the beach.  So everyone did their part at this mission, the beach was cleaned for now. Now the duty was on the people to not let anyone pollute the beach.
