Environment

The first thing I notice about this picture is the water bottle crossed out. I think what the photo is trying to say is that the school cares about our future and they are putting their best foot forward to have a greener future by eliminating as many single-use plastics. I feel good about this because it encourages that an action as simple as bringing a reusable water bottle is beneficial for the environment but is also economically better. In schools, we are sometimes very wasteful with paper especially and this tiny step gets us closer to a better environment. In the past couple of years, we have progressed in understanding the severity of how climate change is affecting the world. This photo will potentially allow other schools to be motivated to take similar actions in their community which is super important. As a school, we can add more of these small little tasks an example would be that taking notes on your laptop instead of papers that’ll be thrown away at the end of the year. Another thing the school does as well is the automatic light switches that conserve electricity when there is no movement in the classrooms and so I believe we’re on the right path to brighten our future.
