Besides growing up in Bali, Laksmi also lived in Australia since the age of 16. Since that age, she has been accustomed to applying the concept of waste segregation in her daily life, especially since Australia does apply strict rules regarding waste.
Laksmi believes that it is still difficult for people in Indonesia to implement waste segregation and processing using the well-known methods of reduce, reuse and recycle.
“There is a reason why we still use it from the past until now because we really need to implement it in order. Reduce, reuse, and recycle,” he said.
Given the importance of environmental sustainability, Laksmi also invites young people to adopt a sustainable lifestyle because it not only affects themselves but also more broadly.
“In my opinion, for young people, let us look for opportunities from being sustainable. I mean, we see, we intellectually and intelligently see how being sustainable has a good impact not only for our lives,” said Laksmi.
