[example 1]The students had a day off school because of the holy day called Nyepi. Luh Ayu Manik and her friends were happy because they were on holiday and they could watch the parade of ogoh-ogoh for Pangrupukan. That morning, Luh Ayu Manik was asked by her mother to go to the market to buy materials so she could make caru (banten kurban for a Balinese Hindu ceremony) at home. The market was not far away. It is next to the banjar near her house. However, so she could have a friend to chat to on the road, she went looking for Putu Nika to go to the market with her. Luh Ayu Manik remembered to take a cloth bag with her to the market. She remembered Pak Budi’s words about how plastic can pollute the environment. Arriving at the front of Putu Nita's house, Luh Ayu Manik called out while looking about. "Putu Nita, it’s Luh Ayu Manik. Let’s go to the market together!” Luh Ayu Manik called Putu Nita from outside the fence.
"Wait a minute, Luh, I’ll get a shopping bag first," Putu Nia answered.
Then Putu Nita appeared carrying a cloth bag for her shopping.
"Come on, Luh.
I've also brought a cloth bag to reduce the amount of plastic waste.
