    About the series:
    What does it take to bridge the divide between generations, especially between grandparents and their grandchildren ? Can they pass on the culture and knowledge that define who they are and narrow the yawning chasm between them ? Four teenagers and their grandparents are challenged to take on projects that matter to them. But as personalities clash and tempers fly, can they confront their differences or will they become more alienated than ever before.

    This is so sweet. The grandma actually has zero interest in being eco-friendly, but she did all that just for the love of her grandchild.

      She's quite smart for her age.
      The school she in must be amazing.
      It took me 30 years to love the environment and spend more time with my love one.
      I start small by using old newspaper for my trash bin. I just fold it and turn it into a bag lol.
      I also use half the toilet water only or less by controlling by the toilet handle. The toilet just need a few water to generate a wave and i let go of the handle. Gravity will do the rest.
      It take practice so you won't use to much force and push the handle all the way down.

    emma's last sentence left a heavy impression on me. she's 15 and says "our time on this earth is limited, so we should make the best of what we have." i believe this is how she views the environmental problems as well. she's making full use of her existence here to do what she can for the environment. I really find her amazing

    i love this video, and how it shows the generational differences between emma and her grandma, mildred. she is so willing to take interest in what her granddaughter is doing for the environment and wants to be closer to her. that's amazing. it's also really true that the older generation don't bother themselves with recycling as well, and that's why it's time for the younger generation to step in and make that change. i love emma, she's 15 and already knows clearly what she wants to do- helping the environment, and does whatever she can to fulfill that mission. she, is an example of a millenial who is building the future of the world. so inspiring and honest to watch. environmental problems are real and we all need to do our part.

It’s tough to head there all the time to get our refills... :( other countries already have these unnecessary packaging opt out. Look at how excessive our packaging is just for grapes, nuts. I would love to bring my own container...

    Singapore is such a Unique country in Asia. A lo of us Europeans (whites) look as Singapore as a place to do business and trade. BUT if you look at all of the nations around ASEAN Thailand, Indonesian, they are so much more satisfied and happy with life than the average Singaporean. I think SNG is an example that GDP doesn't equate to happiness and that the social elements are more integral at the end of the day. When I look at SNG I see a society that is afraid of risk and ''stepping outside'' the box.

    It take practice because you don't want to use to much force by pushing the handle all the way down.
    P. S it's quite hard to master because you need patience and a lot of dexterity using your left hand.
    2 fingers on the side of the tank , 2 fingers on the handle and using your thumb as equalizer.
    It's like arm wrestling for your 2 vs 2 fingers.

    • @kimberleychan4378
      @kimberleychan4378 Před 6 lety

      Hg Lim it may be difficult to do so as we do not live in the same country. I can’t even FaceTime with her because she’s very hard of hearing and cannot hear me so I think even explaining what recycling is wouldn’t work. Also, she can’t even remember the days of the week and the dates, I doubt she will be able to complete a challenge as such. I think all we (my mum) can do now is rummage through the bin to sort it out herself. :/

    After watching the video, I am happy that Emma and her grandma got closer together. However, I just cant help but to feel little sad for Emma's grandmother. Why is she the only one that is making the changes. She is speaking in English, she is trying her best to go green. How about Emma? Does she knows what her grandma likes? Does she even try to speak in mandarin/dialect to her grandma? I am not too sure if she does all these off-screen, but I just hope that all grandchildren will also try to get to know their grandparents better. It is the same for all relationships. It takes 2 hands to clap.
