Chapter 8 - Garbage (3)
| ELPHI |
Children, garbage can be an authentic disaster. And one that we are building up every day |
| MAKI |
That’s not a natural disaster! |
| ELPHI |
Be serious, children. Banana peels are bio-degradable garbage, Monkito, but garbage. And garbage can cause many diseases. |
| BUNDI |
And rats! |
| ELPHI |
(VOICE TREMBLING) Ughhh, don’t remind me! (T) |
| MAKI |
Humans are destroying our nature. |
| ELPHI |
Indeed, Maki! They produce tons of garbage. And much of it can not be recycled by Mother Nature for thousands of years. |
| BINDU |
What can we do? |
| ELPHI |
There are many things we can do. |
| MAKI |
(LAUGHING) For a start Monkito can take a bath! |
| BINDU |
(LAUGHING) Throw himself in the trash can… |
| MONKITO |
Hey, hey… You two are getting personal. |
| ELPHI |
This is what we are going to do: we will start a project contest. |
| MAKI |
About garbage? |
| ELPHI |
Yes. What to do to solve the garbage problem. There will be prizes for the best three projects. |
| MONKITO |
Since I am a reporter, I will make radio programs explaining the situation. |
| ELPHI |
Very good idea! |
| MAKI |
We can start campaigns in our communities. Something like “Keep Dengue away”! |
| BINDU |
And we can get help from our parents to clean garbage in the streets. |
| ELPHI |
Bravo children, that’s the spirit! |
