The Eco-Save Club held another meeting today and all our
members came together to reflect upon our activity in 2013 and to prepare new
ways to further our cause in the coming new year.
One issue that we all noticed this past year, especially in
our schools, was the massive waste of printer and copy machine paper. Students
often forgot to print double-sided and pressed the “Print” button multiple
times out of impatience, resulting in many sheets of wasted paper. In response
all our members have been hard at work creating notebooks from recycled scrap
paper for the past few weeks. By placing our logo on the front covers and
distributing them to peers at our respective schools, we hope to remind our
peers that every sheet of paper they waste leaves a deeper scar on our
endangered forests.
In order to further raise awareness at our schools, our
members have also created one-page leaflets to pass around amongst our peers.
We left the meeting room with high hopes and we plan on
working even more diligently to let those around us know about the harm
inflicted on our planet.

ReplyDeleteHello~guys! Our meeting was really informative and alerting at the same time. The amount of waste we create in our daily lives will go straightly with the global warming issue. Using the recycled paper at home and in public will be a small step to help out the environment. ^^* By Alberta Yoo
ReplyDeleteAfter the meeting, I learned that a lot of paper is getting wasted so it really inspired me to save more paper by using recycled paper. I was also motivated to study about the ecosystem and try to save it from the things that are harming it.Thank u!! -- Justin Chung
ReplyDeleteThe issue of wasting paper notified me to save more paper. I learned that wasting paper can harm the environment around us, and is a major factor of pollution that effects us too. Working with recycled paper can help our environment significantly.
