#10 – Cero Plastic Bottle Campaign
Colegio Menor
Room B35
Maritime Safety and Pollution
Essential Question:
How can we reduce the consumption of plastic in our school?
[su_tabs active=”1″][su_tab title=”Student Film”]
[/su_tab] [su_tab title=”Impact Statement”]
Impact Statement:
With our Zero Plastic Bottles project we have reached around 1500 people (upper school and teachers). We reduce the 3000 bottles consumed per month by delivering thermos that can be used in drinking fountains. We got the thermos through the auspices of a company of one of the parents. This is our first Green Policy in the school, and it has been working for the last 5 months.
Workshop Description:
The Colegio’s Menor Green Movement create the campaign Zero Plastic Bottles, the main objective was the elimination of every single plastic bottle used or sold inside campus. Green Movement gave a reusable bottle to every student and teachers of upper school so they can drink liquids whenever they want without consuming plastic. The Green Movement program was very excited since this because it was our first green policy approved after 2 years of evaluating. The campaign was launched the 22 of April of the 2016, the Earths Day. We develop this policy since our concerns grew when we found out that only in Colegio Menor students consume 3,000 plastic bottles monthly. This project was very effective; we have seen a tiny amount of plastic bottles inside campus since the campaign was launch. We think that this policy teaches students to reduce the amount of plastic they consume and that reusing is easy and convenient. The students and professor remain hydrated without the use of plastic and most important of all we learn how to reduce and reuse inside our community.

It is necessary to call the attention of society to the use of alternative energy as a way to avoid the burning of fossil fuels and to mitigate the global warming. The use of prototypes may help people to understand that this is possible to perform big projects of alternative energies.
