Who are We? Why are We Here?

Who or what is the Green Team?

We're not looking to impress. We're not looking for anyone's recognition.

We're advocates for the environment, in little ways and in big ways.

My suggestion for our Green Team motto is "S.E.E". (Will be discussed in our next meet). Which means "Spirit, Ethics and Environment". Why is "Environment" last? Because there is no real purpose if you want to advocate for a cause but you don't have the passion (spirit) and values (ethics). We respect our members and treat them as family, and we expect members to do the same. "S.E.E" also represents our surveillence role on the environment and our transparency to our activities and goals.

The Green Team has gone through a list of trials and tribulations through the past one year. Yes, we're small. Yes, we're NOT loud or noisy. But we mean well in our work with great vigor.

We've organized a Green talk by inviting the Green Crusaders from Penang, Don & Mylene. They keep updated with us and constantly look to invite more passionate people to the cause through recycling.

We've come up with our first newsletter, the Green Gazette, in black and white, headed by Nazriq as the editor, Haneesa as the assistant and Shaqyla as our star designer. We do NOT and will probably never will print in colour, as colour is less environmentally friendly and it costs more.

Our Team is looking not to be BIG or officiated. Our Team is instead looking at small ways, low costs, but high character and passion in doing our best for the environment.

We're starting slow, but we have big minds and greater hearts.

We've made art from re-usable and recyclable materials.

We've conducted around three recycling campaigns. One of which is under our Alang Sedayu River Clean-Up, where we cleared plastic bags, canvas sheets, bottle caps, glass bottles, countless of stale baby diapers and many other less-than-pleasing-to-your-senses rubbish.

If you don't recognize us, or know who we are, it's okay. But if you do know us, then that's great! Join us! We look to be involved in activities that have a long-term effect/result, and would encourage any interested individual to be a part of this cause.

So if you don't know us, well, that's not what we truly seek. It's alright.
-BUT what we truly hope and strive for is that our Mother Earth will... She will know us, appreciate us, and love us and our efforts.

And THAT is what Green Team is all about.

To the Green Team family, don't ever forget that! :)
