On April 25th, three foreign students from Tongji Hospital——Musa, fourth year doctoral student from Uganda, Kang Yichen, third year doctoral student from Pakistan, Minaka, second year master student from Mauritius and two members of CCP and master students—Ni Longshan, Lv Mingwei executed apublic activity—“Waste sorting-- Wuhan is proud of you” in Health Valley Community of Caidian District, Wuhan City, which aimed to public’s awareness of environmental protection and engaged themselves in environmental protection.

The garbage classification before it is stored, distributed and transported, can effectively improve the recycling rate and economic value, decrease consumption of land resources and utilize recycled waste as resource to the maximum. In order to make the residents learn more about garbage classification, these students formed a "Volunteer Squad for the Publicity of Garbage Classification Knowledge" with staff in the community. To motivate everyone to actively participate in this work, they handed out brochures, organized garbage classification games and explained to the residents about the significance of garbage classification and its methods.

At the end of this activity, the volunteer squad gathered the residents together and delivered a lecture to popularize knowledge of garbage classification, in the way they explained how to deal with food debris. Every resident at present showed their highly praise to the students’ lecture.

This public activity not only enhanced the students and residents’ acknowledgement of garbage classification, letting the concept of “green, low-carbon and environmental protection” deeply root in everyone’s heart, but also made strong connection among environmental protection volunteers from different countries. The international student Musa said:I am very happy to see the community sorting garbage and personally participate in it. I think this can promote the recycling of resources and make the environment cleaner and more beautiful.
