28th Mar 2020, by Roots & Shoots Malaysia
Every year, at 8:30pm on the last Saturday of March, households around the world switch their lights off for an hour, engaging millions of people in one of the world's largest and most accessible movements for the environment.

What Can We Do?. We Can Be Responsible And Stay At..
28th Mar 2020, by Roots & Shoots Malaysia
What can we do?
We can be responsible and stay at home to eradicate the virus that threatens to overwhelm our healthcare systems.
We can be kind to others - the neighbours, the delivery people, the supermarket workers. A smile and a “Thank you” goes a long way.
We can be encouraging to everyone. Even online. Spreading fake news, encouraging others to break the rules, or even disparaging others online is not contributing to a solution. Choose instead to be kind. To be the bringer of positi...

They are however, incredibly dependent on sea ice for survival, making them highly vulnerable to the effects of global warming which has affected the Arctic the most.
As a result of polar ice caps melting, Polar Bear numbers have plummeted in the wild and many have been pushed into urban areas. Ravenous and starving, the b...

Like rhino horns, pangolin scales are made of keratin, and have no proven medicinal value, yet they are famously used in traditional Chinese medicine ranging from medication for lactation difficulties to arthritis. In February 2019, Malaysian authorities made a record-breaking bust in Sabah, uncovering a syndicate that was dealing in a...
