"I'm convinced that by seeing other countries, the solution is that they first of all have a culture where the youth don't throw their wrappers, cans and stuff on the street. Everybody puts it in recycling," said Boshcoff. "So if other countries can get their students to do that, I'm hoping that our educational system can really inspire its students to be the leaders.
"The earth is not only our home, this is our city, so every time you toss something you are tossing it into your home," he said.
