Green School Project

The fight against climate change is often associated with large-scale actions in urban areas. However, the school serves as an engine for change, where all staff, both teaching and non-teaching, can alter their attitudes, values, and behaviors regarding environmental education.
With this project, we aim to raise awareness and promote good environmental practices within our school. The objectives of our project include:

1. Promoting awareness among students about their role in the fight against climate change by emphasizing the value of plants as CO₂ reducers.
2. Involving the families of students in the design and implementation of proposals.
3. Encouraging public discourse on utilizing private and public spaces as CO₂ sinks.
 4. Integrating the fight against climate change into all areas of secondary education.

This project comprises some activities, ranging from awareness talks to planting vegetables in the green areas of the school and establishing a compost bin.

The main activity of this project involves experimentation.  In this activity, students measure CO₂ and temperature values under different conditions, such as the presence or absence of plants. 

Analyzing the results allows them to become aware of the importance of plants as CO₂ sinks, and thus, as tolls in the fight against climate change.
