About 70 Chonburi students helped create homes for fish using
artificial grass in a project organized by the YWCA Bangkok-Pattaya
Center.
The students from Banthung Kha School used synthetic grass made from
ropes to create seabeds that will be deposited in the sea to return
balance to the local marine environment.
YWCA Chairwoman Praichit Jetpai and Pattaya mayoral advisor Kritsana
Jiramongkol hosted the July 25 event at Naklua’s Lan Po Park. The
activity was aided by the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources
Center 1, local fishermen’s groups and the Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan
Foundation.
The purpose of the project was to return balance to the aquatic
environment by planting synthetic grass in the sea and create awareness
amongst youths as to the importance of the environment.
