Plastic Waste, Bring It Down #4: Steps That Keep Continuing
The mountain never truly calls, yet it always becomes a place to return. On June 27, 2025, Paralegals.id once again invites anyone who cares to walk the hiking trail toward Pura Pucak Mangu, continuing the movement entitled “Plastic Waste, Bring It Down.”
This will be the fourth implementation — a marker that a small movement, born from a simple desire to protect nature, has now grown into a regular agenda twice a year—a commitment that never loses its meaning.
The activity still stands on its original values: that harmony between humans and the environment must be preserved through concrete action. That caring for nature is not the duty of a few, but belongs to all of us.
Sispala Wana Bhakti Pertiwi, the school nature club that has been a main partner of this program from the beginning, will again take part. The students of SMA Negeri 1 Mengwi are not merely participants, but the very soul of this movement—the heirs of a spirit planted back in 2007 by its initiator, Suka Antarayasa, when he was still in his high school uniform.
From Steps to a Movement
From one small community, Plastic Waste, Bring It Down has now become a meeting space for many faces. Some are lawyers from other law firms, others are notary staff, old friends who bring along new friends—people who come not for the name Paralegals.id, but for the story.
A story of walking among trees, picking up plastic that isn’t ours, and returning home with a chest that feels just a little lighter.
This activity does not change the world. But it changes the way we look at it. That amid legal work, meetings, and daily routines, there is still time to pause—to look again at the earth beneath our feet, and to help care for it, even if only with a single bag of plastic waste.
So on June 27, we once again invite anyone who wishes to join. There are no requirements except sincere intention. No limits other than the physical ones we can overcome together.
Because this movement is not about who started it, but about who is willing to continue it. And we believe that this small movement will keep repeating, because caring never stops at just one day.
See you on the trail.
