Ms Chermain, a Green Committee member in
Institute of Mental Health (IMH), invited Earth Society to set up a booth at
their Eco-Festival held on 18 Sep. This is the first Eco-Festal IMH organized to
raising awareness on what can we do to protect the environment.
IMH invited NGOs such as Earth Society,
Nature Society, WWF, Better Trails to participate in this event. IMH also
invited plant-based vendors such as 8Treasures and The Good Burger to promote
plant-based food during the event.
On 18 Sep, Earth
Society team arrived at IMH on 9.45 am. At our booth, we displayed a ‘GHG
& Water usage’ Board. The people who visited our booth learnt about the
amount of Green House Gas (GHG) emitted to produce certain types of food when
they read the Board. We also distributed Eco-leaflets to people who passed by
our booth and spoke to those who were interested in protecting the environment.
We manned the booth from 10 am to 3.40
pm.
We are glad that
the hospitals are getting on board to promote the Green message. We are
delighted that IMH recognize plant-based diet as an Eco-friendly diet and even showcased
plant-based food in this Eco-event.
