The regulating lake is the largest reservoir in Vinh city, with a land area of 53 hectares and a water surface area of 40 hectares, located at the end of the North canal, in the low-lying area bordering Hung Loc commune, Hung Hoa commune and Hung Dung ward. However, this large regulating lake is currently heavily polluted. Photo: QA

The lake surface is covered with garbage, especially plastic bags and plastic bottles, mostly due to people gathering at the lake to eat and drink, littering indiscriminately into the lake, causing environmental pollution, ruining the urban beauty, and affecting water drainage in the approaching rainy and stormy season.

On the afternoon of August 7, nearly 20 young people currently studying at Vinh University, Vinh Medical University, Huynh Thuc Khang High School and Vinh University High School for the Gifted joined hands to clean the regulating lake, hoping to return a clean living environment to the people.

While cleaning up the trash, despite encountering many dangerous objects such as needles and broken glass, the children still persevered and worked without hesitation. Photo: QA

Dang Thong Hung, a member of Nghe An Xanh group, said: Half a year ago, we cleaned up the trash at this lake, however, the awareness of some people, especially young people, is still very poor, and they still freely litter the lake bed. We just want the group's actions to spread so that the community can join hands to protect the environment. Photo: QA
