And we really enjoyed our stay.

It was really a great time, and the Daisy is easy to pluck of the ground .

Firstly An invasive species is a non-native organism that spreads aggressively into an area where it doesn't belong often causing harm to the local environment, ecosystem, or culture.
On the 27th of February we had an Opportunity to Visit the Hillside Dam Conservancy and we worked on plucking out the Daisy which is invasive to our environment and it actually spreads quickly outcompeting with native plants.

Celebrate with Pride, Leave No Trace

As thousands of us gather today at different venues across the country, let’s show that the youth of Zimbabwe are not just the leaders of tomorrow, but the cleaners and protectors of today.

A rally is a place for voices, not for litter. Large events often result in "goldmines" of plastic waste—bottles, food containers, and flyers that can clog our drains and pollute our soil. We are calling on every attendee to:

Bin It or Bag It: Use the provided bins. If you can't find one, keep your trash in a small bag until you reach a proper disposal point.

The "3 Rs" Rule:Practice Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Keep your plastic water bottles for reuse instead of tossing them after one drink.

Lead by Example : If you see someone drop litter, kindly encourage them to pick it up.

Happy Robert Gabriel Mugabe National Youth Day.

💚☘️ *LETS GET REAL ABOUT OUR CLIMATE*

Good day everyone😃. We talk about climate change a lot, but sometimes the facts really put things into perspective.

🌡️ The Heat is On:
The last nine years(2014-2023) have been the nine warmest on record, with 2023 officially the hottest year ever recorded. This isn't a slow trend; it's an acceleration.

🤔 What's Going On?
In a nutshell,climate change is the long-term shift in our planet's temperature and weather patterns. The main driver? Human activities—like burning fossil fuels—that release massive amounts of greenhouse gases (like CO2 and methane) into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat, causing the planet to warm up.

💥 The Impacts Are Here:
This isn't a far-off future problem.We're already seeing it:

· Wilder Weather: More intense hurricanes, severe droughts, and record-breaking floods and heatwaves.
· Rising Seas: Threatening coastal communities and ecosystems.
· Biodiversity Crisis: Disrupting the habitats that plants and animals rely on.
· Human Toll: Impacts on our health, food security, and the global economy.

🔬 The Scientific Consensus is Clear:
The world's top climate scientists(the IPCC) warn we must limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels to avoid the most catastrophic effects. We're already at about 1.2°C.

💡 So, What's the Latest?
Even with all the talk,global CO2 emissions from energy hit a new record high in 2023. Current projections show we are on a path to warm by around 2.5-2.9°C by 2100—a dangerous level we must work to avoid.

This is why our club exists. It's easy to feel overwhelmed, but together, we can turn awareness into action.

DID YOU KNOW💬
Microplastics have been found in a staggering 83% of tap water worldwide? It's crazy to think that these tiny plastic particles are making their way into our drinking water, isn't it?

So, how do they get there? Microplastics come from various sources, including plastic bottles, bags, and even microbeads in personal care products. They enter waterways through wastewater treatment plants, stormwater runoff, and atmospheric deposition.

The effects of microplastics on human health are still being studied, but potential risks include toxicity, bioaccumulation, and physical harm to organs.

The good news is that there are ways to reduce microplastic exposure. Boiling water can remove up to 90% of microplastics, especially in hard water, by trapping them in mineral deposits. Using water filters, especially those with reverse osmosis technology, can also help.

The World Health Organization (WHO) and other organizations are working to address microplastic pollution and promote sustainable practices .

What do you think? 🤔

Thank you to those who attended our clean up campaign of the first Friday of every month on the 7th of December 2025 , those who went to Mkokoba through an invite and those who did the clean up on campus. We appreciate your effort and motive towards building a cleaner environment.
