Our school takes part
in the project Sustainable wrappers "Embolcall + Sostenibles" that
pretends to offer alternative use of aluminum foil, in the breakfast wappers at school.
Maybe the biggest
problem we have in our daily lives against sustainability is the elevated
consumption of products that keep in danger nature.In Spain, a person generates an average of 2kg of waste per day, so 14 kg per week and approximately 726 kg per year. To be more sustainable we should reduce our consumption.
In our school, IES Ausiàs March, we work on sustainability to do a better and greener world. So thinking about it, we started a project.
DIAGNOSIS
Thinking about how to
reduce the waste we produce every day in our school, we realized that in the
break time for breakfast, an elevated quantity of waste such as plastic,
aluminium paper, bricks, paper... was produced. Since that moment we decided to
change it.The students of 1st and 2nd ESO did a diagnosis and began a campaign to raise awareness in the school. We hung a mural with images and phrases (comic balloons) as a conversation by inviting reflection on the waste that breakfast generates.
ALTERNATIVES
Searching more
ecological alternatives but efficient at the same time, we found an innovative
product called "Boc’n Roll".
"Boc’n Roll" is a wrapper that helps us to keep the food in place adapting itself to the
various shapes and sizes of snacks, such as sandwiches, fruits, etc. It’s
composed of cotton and polyester on the outside, and ecological, recyclable and
very resistant plastic on the inside.
The students did a diagnosis and started a campaign for “Ausiàs Verd”. A mural has been hung in the school with sandwiches (globes of comic) simulating a conversation of two students, inviting to the reflection on the generated waste in the school.
During three random days, four voluntary students went through four classes to analyze the waste generated with our breakfast. They weighed the total generated waste and obtained information that will serve to value the project later.
2. Delivery and agreement
When we had the ecological wrappers, these were delivered to the students of 2nd of ESO first and later on to the 1stof ESO. All, of course, with an agreement of the students to use "bock’n rolls" and to eliminate plastics, aluminium paper, bricks…
