"Clean up the Countryside" Society
On the next day, the society had another meeting. Vicki said, "Today we must look for people dropping rubbish." Everyone agreed, and soon Rosie and Jane noticed some picnickers. The picnickers were finishing their picnic, and they left all their rubbish on the ground. "What are you going to do with all that litter you’ve left?" asked the girls. "I don’t know what you mean," said a tall man with an American accent. "Just think," said Vicki. "Think about those bits of glass you've left from your bottles of juice and all those cola cans. Think about how ugly the place will look littered like that. It can also hurt wild animals." "The young lady is right," said a woman, who was wearing a little hat. "We just can’t leave this rubbish here." "That’s right," said Vicki. "Here, take this bag." "Thank you, girls," they said, "for helping us understand that the country is a beautiful place and that we must not spoil it." Then they all got into their American car and drove to the town. Vicki and her friends shouted, "Three cheers for our Society! Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray!"
You can imagine how surprised the girls were when the next morning, their Science teacher, Mr Bird, spoke to the class about ecology and the importance of keeping the environment clean. He said that pollution was getting worse and could easily bring about a global disaster. The result of the environmental crisis was that in many parts of the world humans were beginning to suffer from shortages of food and clean water to survive.
At the end of the lesson, Mr Bird asked his class what each of them could personally do to help protect the environment. Vicki told the class what had happened in the grove the day before. The teacher and the students praised Vicki, Alice, Rosie, Cathy, and Jane and decided to join their "Clean up the Countryside" Society.
