Dear Sir/Ma'am,
Subject: Awareness about unhygienic surroundings.
Through the columns of your esteemed daily, I wish to bring forward, awareness on a very common, yet essential topic, that is the hygiene and cleanliness of our surroundings.
As humans, for years, we have been exploiting natural resources and using them indiscriminately. Now that there has been a lockdown due to the pandemic, people have been staying in, and nature got a chance to heal itself. But, the lockdown has ended, people have started going out again and polluting the environment like there's no tomorrow. Along with garbage, paper, and plastic, masks have become a new problem. People don't know how and where to discard their used masks since there are no dustbins available, so they just toss them on the road. This is leading to pollution, not only this, it is harmful to animals. The cows on the roads are chewing these masks up along with all the rest of our garbage, dogs are eating them in hope to find food in dumpsters, and the land is getting more and more polluted every day.
We need to put a stop to this, and all of us should take a step towards a cleaner and greener world. You are requested to print an article regarding the same in your newspaper, alerting the concerned authorities to take appropriate measures.
Thank you
Yours truly
