EcoVision is an organisation that aims to reduce plastic waste by promoting recycling. For this initiative, we have installed designated dustbins in various societies across our city in which only plastic waste will be disposed. Every week, the garbage collecting team will collect the waste from these bins and transport them to a site where the recycling happens.
LO3: As this was my CAS project, me and the other members of the team had to plan and organise how all the things had to go, from collaborating with member of EcoVision to collaborating with volunteers, it was our responsibility to ensure that all tasks are being carried out smoothly. We had to distribute tasks on spreadsheets, allocate time for meeting with volunteers and other schools to spread the word, and also manage efficient communication though social media and WhatsApp groups.
LO5: This is not an individual task, but a collaborative effort that requires the contribution of multiple people from the different nearby schools to the garbage collecting team. Everyone needs to contribute by making an effort to separately dispose the plastic waste in the designated dustbin.I was incharge of distributing tasks and ensuing all things were being done on time, and co-ordinate with the EcoVision team for plastic collection.
LO6: This is a worldwide issue since we are aiming to achieve numerous SDGs, such as Climate Action, Life on Land, Sustainable Cities and Communities, and Responsible Consumption and Production, to mention a few. Hopefully, this can be expanded and everyone begins to manage their garbage by disposing of it in separate containers and partnering with organizations like EcoVision.
LO7: All of this is being done to achieve a cleaner and healthier planet. Our actions hold a lot of weight and importance in this world. Smaller steps lead to bigger changes.This Project is a step towards a brighter future, where we take into consideration that effects our actions have on the environment as a community and work for a better as well as a cleaner future
