The activity of releasing fish and throwing EM Balls is beneficial in the conservation of the aquatic environment, treating water with EM balls, which are microorganism therapies, a natural treatment. It is an activity for the younger generation to turn to look at the environment, that nowadays, the environment, our daily lives also have a part that destroys the environment, such as household activities that release water for use, draining it into ponds, even industrial activities, production activities also release water into water sources as well.

Even the agricultural sector itself uses various chemicals. When it rains, it washes away and flows into natural ponds. Because of this, natural water sources are continuously degraded. Therefore, if we do not do any activities today, this nature will continue to be destroyed. In the future, our society and our children will have a bad environment. Therefore, today’s activities will be a confirmation that the water sources that we use and drink from every day are quality water sources. Various aquatic animals can survive and can be a sustainable source of food for us in the future.”
