DAILY WASTE
Every day we generate a lot of waste at school: paper, plastic, packaging...
So, we have decided to look for some solutions to avoid this problem because it is very bad for the environment.

REUSE CANS
We consume a lot of soda cans and they pollute a lot.
To avoid contaminating so much, this is one of the ways to reuse a soda can:
make a pencil holder
Another thing that we consume a lot are plastic bottles, and they are also harmful for the environment. So, we can reuse them to make things, for example:
make a flowerpot

SCRAP PAPER
We use a lot of paper in our daily life at school and we are worried about the trees used to get this material. Thus, we had the idea of keeping paper we aren´t using anymore on a tray and reuse it.For example,as drafts.

Avoid Silver Foil
One of the products, substances or metals that is always present in our lives is aluminum, especially in the kitchen. A toxic metal in the kitchen!
According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Control (ATSDR), aluminum is one of those substances that have been studied and shown to have harmful effects on human health.
Instead, we can use small bags and wrap our sandwiches. We think is a better way, more reusable and sustainable food packaging.

Reused Bottles
Glass is an inert material that has no impact, nor does it transfer flavor to the food or beverages it contains. It can be reused as many times as you want without problem and without losing quality. Plastic is much more porous. It also contains chemical elements that can pass into food or drink.
So, we have decided to replace the plastic bottles by glass ones in our school.
