#KeepEnvironmentClean

Figure 1: Environmental Cleaning

An environment is the surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal or plant lives or operates. 

It is important that we all keep it clean to avoid diseases; germs; pollution; and more.

Advantage of using the hashtag on social media

• Connectivity

Figure 2: Getting connected with communities

Finding and knowing what impacts the lives of communities; meeting them half-way; sharing your thoughts- in this case, keeping the environment clean, will help form that connectivity with them.

• Persuade

Figure 3: Call- to- action

The use of the hashtag on social media will help persuade and educate people to take part in cleaning their background.

• Awareness

Figure 4: Creating an awareness

Social media will help create awareness on environmental cleaning to enhance the lives of communities.

• Build communities

Figure 5: Building the community.

Posting about this topic will build communities as it will attract people with the same interests. There are so many businesses that have tried to eradicate this issue, so it would not be so hard to put more emphasis on it, since everyone will be aware of it.

Disadvantages of using the hashtag on social media

• Repetition of information

Considering the fact that this topic has been discussed before, not everyone will have the interest in reading the post as they would assume that the content is the same with previous posts and that it's another waste of time- as businesses have implemented strategies into erasing the issue.

• Easy to go viral

Although this heading seems more like an advantage, it is also a disadvantage. If my content is wrong in the way it has been articulated, such as offensive statements; lack of grammar, will make the post ineffective; it will go viral; and might even ruin my reputation.

#Test4ProstateCancer

Figure 1: Prostate Cancer does exist.

It is cancer that occurs in the prostate- a small walnut- shaped gland in men that produces the seminal fluid that nourishes and transport sperm. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/prostate-cancer/symptoms-causes/syc-20353087 



Advantages of using the hashtag on social media

• Educate & Inform

Figure 2: Get your mind straight.

This hashtag will help men generate information and understanding on the importance of getting testing; symptoms; causes; prevention; risk factors; and complications.

• Motivation

As much as most men prefer to be reserved/ private about their personal lives, with this post one can motivate the other especially when he can relate with the topic- If you had this type of cancer before, the post will be a motivation as it will erase the feeling of a loner- "no one can relate" mentality. It will inspire you to change your mindset into a positive one.

• Help & Attract investors/ businesses

With the reality that this is a personal topic to share about, the post will somehow make it easy for businesses to create campaigns or social groups as it will create publicity and as more people would be familiar with the topic.

• Call- To- Action

Figure 3: Take that step today.

The article will persuade men to get tested; to have the interest to want to know their status; to have the need to care, the list is endless.

Disadvantages of using the hashtag on social media

• Lack of interest

I am not the first person to share about this topic which means that many people have tried their luck before, so if it does not attract the targeted audience- in this case men, no one will have the interest in reading about it. With the post's ineffectiveness, no interest will be generated.

• Negative Mindset

Figure 4: "I can't do it" mentality

It is believed that cancer comes and goes and with that mentality, some men may think that there is point in getting tested as anything is possible. So the post may occur as another "waste of time" to the audience.

• Discomfort

Figure 5: Everyone has their own beliefs

The post may appear as a discomfort zone for other men, since they would believe that such a topic should not be disclosed in public and may also believe that getting tested is a way of belittling yourself, mainly because they will be disclosing their personal information to strangers. Not every man trusts going to the doctor, let alone being tested. So therefore, this article may be a "swipe to left" post.

It is consequently significant that one takes consideration of getting tested. It may seem useless or pointless but this is your life at risk. So start today and #Test4ProstateCancer.
