SINGAPORE - A few years ago when my younger daughter, S, was in primary school, she decided to work on a project about saving the environment and created a slide presentation on the ways that our family could help.
As a geography teacher back then, I was proud of her efforts and decided to encourage her by getting everyone in my family together to listen to her. The presentation progressed well with practical suggestions to reduce, reuse and recycle.
