GREduAction Week 411 – Saturday, 6 June 2026
(Happy World Environment Day, June 2026)

SWIFT KL Session 03 took place today with Uqail, Adeeba, and Rahman.

Wasting no time, Uqail started by collecting litter and removing an illegal poster that had been nailed to a tree. Adeeba gathered "garden gold" (fallen leaves and organic matter) for mulching, and when Rahman arrived, the team headed into the Biodiversity Trail for upkeep activities, including litter collection, a thorny fruit hunt, and observations of river pollution.

Our version of cempedak is no pagar.

Accumulation of brown organic foam/scum and floating debris was observed along the riverbank. The water appeared dark around the affected area, with localized surface accumulation in a low-flow section of the river. These may indicate elevated organic loading, nutrient enrichment, or wastewater inputs. Further water quality testing may be required to determine the source and extent of the pollution. Reported to LUAS.

A quick riverbank clean-up was also carried out while conducting a site inspection of our micro-forest along the school trail.

The trio then maintained the garden beds, installed a standee for the Bunga Telang, removed abandoned tyres, and carried out upkeep works along the Pollinator Trail. They also practised citizen science, with each participant documenting two different species for biodiversity data collection.

𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗱:
Asian Common Toad (Duttaphrynus melanostictus)
Peacock Pansy (Junonia almana)
Common Parasol (Neurothemis fluctuans)
Red-winged Dragonfly (Neurothemis terminata)
Flesh Fly (Family Sarcophagidae)
Berkeley's Polypore (Bondarzewia berkeleyi)
Common Mormon (Papilio polytes)

We also removed a ghost net found near the Pollinator Trail. This is not a good sign, as it suggests that people may be entering the area to catch fish illegally. Such activities undermine our efforts to restore native fish populations in this river.

Adeeba, volunteering with us for the first time, earned herself a Periwinkle and Melampodium plant after successfully completing several quizzes and participating in an EduSharing session with Syuen.

While it was a small team today, the quality of work and outcomes achieved demonstrated that impact is not always measured by numbers by consistency over time.

Thank you, SWIFT KL, for Session 03. We look forward to welcoming everyone again next month.

Biodiversity Observation - ladybird beetle (ladybug)

Tiny Guardian at Work:
Ladybirds are generally considered beneficial insects because both the adults and larvae feed on:

Aphids
Whiteflies
Scale insects
Other soft-bodied plant pests

It's a good sign of a functioning ecosystem with natural pest control.

Thank you Patrick Lee of Critical2 TV and Suluh for telling the inspiring story of Mazelan Jamaludin (Pak Lan), a true river guardian whose dedication to Sungai Klang over the past three decades proven that meaningful environmental stewardship begins with individual action and unwavering commitment and for highlighting the work of Alliance of River Three (ART!).

Stories like Pak Lan's deserve to be seen, heard, and celebrated. They inspire more people to reconnect with nature, take ownership of their local environment, and become part of the solutions and all this actions align to and

This bottle didn't start in the river.

It started with a single careless moment.

Left by the roadside, washed into a drain, carried into the Klang River, and eventually into the ocean.

When multiplied by thousands of people every day, "just one bottle" becomes one of the reasons the Klang River continues to be among the world's major channels of plastic waste into the sea.

But imagine the opposite.

Imagine if every stretch of river had a community that cared.

A neighborhood that noticed.

A citizen who picked up one piece of litter before it reached the water.

That's how rivers recover.

That's how polluted rivers become living rivers.

River ecosystem conservation doesn't begin in the river.

It begins with our daily choices and our willingness to act.

Small actions.
Big impact.
Community-powered river stewardship.

Today solo by Syuen, this is one of the several posts to come.

Ken, Col Wong, Michelle, Jakob were at Jalan Negara Kita for Dr Billy Tang's PWD Smart FarmAbility session with Anthony (1Razak Mansion) and Mandy (Mrs Earth).

We welcomed Parimala Nesamany, [Founding Member of PJ Sejahtera Core and an RA member for Section 22, Petaling Jaya] to the Taman Melawati River Three SDG Park (TMR3 SDG Park) on Sat 16 May 2026.

Parimala first heard about our work during the recent Art Rabbit event at the British Council Malaysia, where conversations around creativity, community, sustainability, and urban transformation sparked new connections and possibilities.

But hearing about something is one thing.
Coming to see it for yourself is another.

Ken walked Parimala the park trails, experienced the living ecosystem, and saw firsthand how a once-neglected urban river space can be reimagined into a thriving nexus of community action, biodiversity restoration, environmental education, art, and SDG-driven placemaking.

This is exactly why spaces like TMR3 SDG Park matters, not just as local interventions, but as proof that communities can reclaim, restore, and reimagine their own environments.

“How can we do this in our own community?” asked Parimala.

The movement grows one conversation, one visit, and one changemaker at a time.

Thank you, Parimala, for making time and for your commitment to building stronger, greener, more connected communities.

Looking forward to more action from your team.
Community action strongly align to

World Otter Day falls on the last Wednesday of May (27 May 2026), biodiversity is not something far away in untouched forests. It exists beside our cities, rivers, and communities.

In Malaysia, otters are still widely underappreciated beyond being seen as “cute animals.”

What many people do not realise is this:

Otters are indicators of river health.

Their presence often signals that a river ecosystem still has functioning food chains, fish populations, riparian vegetation, and water conditions capable of supporting wildlife.

This matters from an ESG and sustainability perspective because healthy rivers are not only about conservation. They are tied to:
• water resilience
• urban liveability
• flood mitigation
• community wellbeing
• biodiversity recovery in human-dominated landscapes

Yet many urban rivers remain engineered purely for drainage efficiency, while ecological functions are overlooked.

As businesses increasingly speak about ESG, nature-positive action cannot remain abstract.

Biodiversity must become visible and relatable to people living in cities.

As seen in the video captured by MCKL student, Neel Shant, a student of Lecturer Di Lin, this is what EduAction on SDGs on the ground looks like.

In this instance, EduAction on happened through partnership with MCKL, when educators like Lecturer Di Lin instill learning beyond classrooms and encourage students to observe, document, and understand biodiversity one lens at a time.

This time, video credit goes to Neel Shant ().

Sometimes, protecting biodiversity does not begin with large-scale interventions.

It begins with restoring riverbanks, reducing litter, improving habitat corridors, planting more pollinator-friendly flowers and creating public awareness that rivers are living ecosystems, not back lanes.

If a city can support otters, it says something important about the kind of future we are building.

This World Otter Day, perhaps the conversation for businesses is not only about protecting wildlife.

It is about how companies, developers, investors, and city stakeholders can contribute to building greener, more resilient urban ecosystems where biodiversity and economic growth can coexist.

Supporting river restoration, urban greening, biodiversity corridors, community education, and nature-positive infrastructure are no longer just environmental initiatives, they are investments into healthier cities, stronger communities, and long-term urban resilience.

If otters can return and thrive in our waterways, it reflects the potential of a city that values both development and ecological balance.
