ZERO WASTE CAMPAIGN!
The Scholastica Environmental Club has conducted a week-long environmental awareness campaign on its social media pages from the 19th-25th of the month of September, 2021.The campaign was centered around the theme of “Zero Waste”.
Members actively conducted secondary research and presented their findings in the form of creative infographic slides which were uploaded to raise awareness among our school community. Members were also assigned to maintain a personal journal where they listed down what wastes were produced and how they consciously tried to reduce it, as they went along the week. The event was incredibly successful – having circulated more than 14 incredibly informative, innovative and crucial posts on The Scholastica Environmental Club Facebook and Instagram Pages.
The posts covered topics such as
- the environmental benefits of going Zero Waste,
- the link between fast fashion and Zero Waste,
- the role of Industrial Corporation in waste management
- ,etc.
Furthermore, the slides shedded light on how we can be preventative about these problems such as by
- finding eco-friendly alternatives,
- making innovative Zero Waste DIYs, etc.
We hope that through this week, our members and the rest of our community, have grown conscious of the growing importance of Zero Waste as well as found a trusted outlet for practical ways of adapting these habits to their day to day lifestyle.
Our members have shown great teamwork and confidence in conducting their research and sharing it with the rest of the school. We are very proud of their efforts.
It is also important to note that going Zero Waste does not have to be by going “All –in “ or “All –Out” . It is the mentality of choosing what matters over what doesn’t. Going Zero Waste can simply be growing conscious of one’s needs.
