Segregated Bins Installation at Beaconhouse School
System – Senior Gulrez Branch
Rawalpindi, December 19, 2011: WWF - Pakistan’s Green School Programme
inaugurated colour coded dustbins at their pioneer Green School - Beaconhouse School
System, Senior Gulrez Branch, Rawalpindi. Dr. Ejaz Ahmad, Deputy Director General,
WWF - Pakistan was the Chief Guest at the event.
Garbage segregation is the first step in recycling waste materials. Segregation at source is
the easiest and most effective way of segregating unwanted material. After waste is
segregated it can be sold to recyclers for further processing.
This event serves as a platform for teachers, students and public as a whole to learn about
the benefits of garbage segregation and an opportunity to integrate the segregation model
into education institutes and more importantly into homes across Pakistan.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Ejaz Ahmad said that WWF - Pakistan aims to further
enhance public awareness by engaging the youth in environmental education activities.
The purpose of the programme was to engage school students and teachers in a
structured awareness programme to foster a sense of individual responsibility and
accountability in future generations towards nature conservation.
Green Students along with Chief Guest, Principal and representatives from WWF Pakistan and BSS participated in the segregation of garbage and other environment
oriented activities. WWF - Pakistan’s Green School Programme provided three colour
coded garbage bins to the school to reinforce and facilitate garbage segregation.
