Vision

This action relates to the UN sustainability goal of Climate Action, Responsible Consumption and Action, Life Below Water, Life on Land, Partnerships. and Clean Water and Sanitation. We will persuade others, vote with their wallet, and lower footprints. We will be promoting waste-free meetings. When speaking with the City of Richmond Hill and caretakers, a problem they wish to be addressed is waste. Also, by having reusable items at meetings, we will decrease our ecological footprints and help decrease climate change consequences. Reusable items will reduce plastic waste and reliance on petroleum products and the associated burning of fossil fuels.

Action

We watched Youth Forum webinars, created posters about being environmentally friendly, and encouraged others to reuse items and decrease waste. We hope that everyone in our school community will have an increased awareness about how to decrease our ecological footprints and encouragement to do so.

Reflection & Celebration

Staff are making use of their new plates at waste-free meetings when there is food.
