2. Impact (Pollution)




People leaving the newspaper at the bench. Water bottles also can be found near and at the back of the bench. These are many examples of people littering at the park. There are also many litters thrown into the river. Numerous leaves and litter are gathered at the water edge which now makes the water dirty and not as clean as before.




    People eating food and littering on the grass even though there is a rubbish bin.

3. Conservation efforts done by park officials

The impact of man is indeed great. If many people litter, Jurong Lake Park will not be clean and green for us to enjoy. It will also leave a bad impression on tourists when they come to Singapore. The park officers maintain the park clean and green for us to enjoy. They put up signs as gentle reminders for people who litter. They also hire people to sweep the litter and leaves and clean up the park. These are examples of the conservation efforts done by them:
There are many signs to remind people not to litter at the park. Also many rubbish bins are located at various lamp posts so that it is more convenient to people at the park.



There are people hired by the park officers to gather the leaves and branches into one spot and sweep them into a garbage bag to dispose later. As leaves and branches may fall from the trees, it is helpful for people to sweep them up so that the drains will not be clogged up.
