Welcome to our second themed post! 🚩

In this post, we'll be taking a look at the fluffy members of SG wildlife - the Smooth-coated Otters! ... and what to do if you see them 👀

The group of 4 otters was spotted trotting along Science Park Road on 30th September 2023, right outside PGP 🦦🌊

🫶🏻If you happen to see otters anywhere, here are a few DOs and DONTs!

DO
✔️Ensure your pets are leashed to avoid scuffles
✔️Observe at a distance, especially if you spot otter pups

DO NOT
❌ Use flash photography as the otters may be startled
❌ Feed them food, which may lead to behavioural changes

If there are any otter sightings, feel free to report them to Otterwatch on Facebook! 🌱This allows experts and conservationists to track their movement easily

Otters are an important part of the Singaporean ecosystem, and is also an indirect indicator of water quality💧Being listed as a Vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List, let us protect these cute friends of ours together! 🦦

Welcome to our fourth themed post! 🚩

Did you know that Singapore's Semakau landfill 🏝 , which began operations in 1999, is expected to be filled by 2035?

😷Every year, almost 8 million tonnes of waste is added to the island, but we can all do our part to reduce this figure...by ♻️ RECYCLING! ♻️

✨Hold on!! We know you all love Earth as much as we do, but even recycling has rules:

DO
♻️check if your plastic is recyclable (applies to PET, HDPE and PP plastic)
♻️rinse food containers before recycling (and dry them thx!)

Please do NOT
❌recycle styrofoam or food-stained packagings
❌recycle food waste or e-waste (those require special bins)

❗️Did you know❗️
Certain pantries in PH have been equipped with recycling bins? 👀 The pantries included are the 23/B1, 23/1, 23/2, 23/4, 23/5 and 25/2!

🌱The more we recycle correctly, the more we can reduce the amount of waste sent to Semakau landfill🙌🏻

If you are unsure whether an item is recyclable, do not hesitate to check the government's CGS website!
