As part of the global Serve the Planet initiative of the SSIO, 59 SSIO volunteers, including Sathya Sai Education in Human Values (SSEHV) students and teachers, cleaned up a beach in northern Taiwan on 20th October 2018. Before the clean-up activity, the purpose of this project was introduced and discussed in SSEHV classes. SSEHV teachers extolled the practical value of the activity so that students could see first-hand the destruction of beaches by plastic waste and be motivated to use little or no plastic. One SSEHV teacher, who participated in the beach cleaning activity for the first time, reflected, “It’s overwhelming to see the beach polluted by so much plastic waste. I have made up my mind to use less plastic from now on!”
