Module 5.4: Exercise 2
Once the diagnosis of the waste and its management has been carried out, it is time to specify the actions. These are some of the ideas that have emerged from the school environmental audit carried out in a school:
Make a personalized school lunch box.
Put in the yards specific garbage for each waste: plastic, paper and organic fraction.
Take advantage of the organic fraction to create a school composting plant to make fertilizer for the garden or the school garden...
Give the youngest students the workshop "reduce, reuse and recycle" to raise awareness, explain and teach students, of all ages, the new proposals and also so that they contribute their initiatives and get involved.
Establish an annual award that is given to the class that has achieved the best results in one of the indicators of the audit (for example, the number of students who bring lunch boxes, the one with the most students who come by biking or walking ...).
Propose to the faculty that the qualification of activities is improved when the criteria of reducing their environmental impact or improving waste management has been taken into account.
Activity: based on the conclusions of the environmental audit, it draws up regulations to achieve these objectives. The school St. Giles can help you with some ideas.
