A project that helps to lower the carbon footprint of your community.

Around the world, young people are experiencing the effects of the changing climate change first-hand. Climate anxiety is real, but there is hope. By taking the lead and working together to act against climate change, you and your project can be part of the solution for a sustainable future.

Examples of past projects applicable to this theme:

  • Do an energy audit of your school and see how your school can reduce its energy use
  • Lead a climate march in your community to bring awareness to the issue
  • Host a tree planting day to increase tree cover and the sequestration of carbon

Vermicomposting classroom waste

My students have noticed how much food waste there was at school. We brainstormed solutions and a group of students came upon vermicomposting online. Their plan is to collect compostoble waste from the school cafeteria and use the natural fertilizer to enhancing plant growth in out community garden.

The project this year has been inspired by one student in the class who decided that the school grounds had too much litter. The student encouraged several other people to join and form a club to improve the environment/habitat for our community and animals.
