Today, all the members of the youth society of the LMM gathered to make home-made recycled paper by using waste papers. Celebrating the World Earth Day,  Dr. L.P. Batuwitage, the Seacology Sri Lanka Representative, gave the opening statement, educating the young members about the significance of World Earth Day and this year’s theme while explaining about the importance of this current program that related to it.

To do this work, All the youth members have divided into four separate groups to perform this task. The LMM’s current intern, Ms. Rajini, provided the kids with a great deal of assistance in understanding and actually demonstrating the process of creating recycled paper.

According to her guidance, the youngsters have made the recycled papers and all of them were fully enjoyed this event. They have done it very well, and all the members gathered and united for this valuable work with pleasure.

This paper-making activity has not a particular task; it’s all about their creativity, art, design, and organizing too. Dr. L.P. Batuwitage’s presence and her value as a supporter of the Lanka Mangrove Museum are greatly appreciated by the LMM.
