The 28-year-old takes selfies with rubbish to raise awareness on the effects of littering and to inspire Malaysians to clean up after themselves for Mother Nature’s sake. “If people want to take pictures, the background must be clean and pretty, if not, how are we going to post them on Instagram or Facebook? For sure, it won’t get likes,” he posted on Facebook.

Another post by Ameer shows photos of a dirty forest compound filled with plastic waste and the pristine state it was left in once he had cleared away the rubbish.The young environmentalist hopes to spark a Clean-up Challenge on social media and encourage his fellow countrymen to hold more gotong-royong sessions, especially in popular vacation spots such as the beach.
