They commented that they would keep their place clean by themselves. The public took pledges like keeping their place clean and planting trees to have peace in their society.
Through this programme, the scouts learned that it is vital to keep the planet earth free from pollution to have peace. Every individual should take responsibility to recover better for equitable and sustainable world by not polluting the planet earth, planting the trees and taking care of water.
