Every environmental protection volunteer may resemble a tiny ant, but together they form a force to be reckoned with. More than 300 environmental volunteers from 12 countries including the Philippines, China, Japan, and Europe recently gathered in Hualien for recycling coordinator training. They were all inspired by the experience, and vowed to take what they had learned back home with them.
During the seminar they shared their experience promoting environmental protection awareness in their respective countries. DA.AI Technology took this opportunity to set up a “Household Eco Friendly Space,” where volunteers could reflect on humanitarian ideals as reflected in fabric products. Dharma Master Cheng Yen personally showed her support and encouragement of the staff. Full time staff Sister Hong Rohn-Tresn introduced DA.AI’s upgraded ECO blanket to Master.
Mr. Lee Ding-Ming, Director of DA.AI Technology, explained the concept of humanitarian activism and social responsibility as presented in Tzu Chi Environmental protection efforts. Staff members and two Tzu Chi College also helped the volunteers understand. Pei-Ling, a staff member, was moved by Brother Ding-Ming‘s sharing to join him and the volunteers in singing “To hold your Hand.” Sister Xiao-Hui learned from Professor Wang He-Zhong the effect of global warming, and the important of the work being done to prevent it. The camp also strengthened the commitment of all volunteers from different countries to advance the cause locally.
DA.AI’s intern, Wei-Zou from Tzu Chi College, was impressed that a 90 year old volunteer in Suzhou, China would still volunteer at such an age. He was very touched by the elderly volunteer’s commitment as an example of Master’s teaching: “Believe in your commitment, and do the right thing.” Chen Chun Ming vowed to do everything possible to reduce the volume of garbage in his community when he returns to Malaysia.
The volunteers were moved by the exhibits, and excited to learn how recycled PET bottles can be made into so many kinds of fabric products. They recorded everything they learned and were shown, then enthusiastically shared their experience. They vowed to implement what they have learned when they return to their countries.
