As Taiwan enjoyed its economic boom in the 80s and 90s, obscene amount of trash was also produced due to wastage and lack of recycling. The trash quickly overwhelmed the country`s landfills, while people protested against building more landfills and incinerators. Amidst the conflict, Master Cheng Yen called out to her supporters to actualize Tzu Chi`s environmental mission, which eventually solved the problem and also transformed Taiwan`s people.
1980年到1990年間，臺灣享受經濟繁榮，但也因為浪費與沒有落實環保，讓垃圾量爆炸，讓掩埋場很快就爆滿，同時許多居民也抗議，興建焚化爐、掩埋場，在混亂當中，證嚴上人登高一呼，要支持者落實慈濟的環保志業，不僅解決了問題，也改變了臺灣人的習慣。
