Environmental Friendly Schools
The first thing that pops into my mind when I hear the word “environment” is “home”. Environment means the place you live, work, stay, study or spend time in any way. That’s our environment.
In life we fight and struggle to get the best out of it: well being, good life and health. The most important one is health, but to have health you must have a good place to live, meaning a good environment. How do we get this thing? The answer lies in Nature Protection. Now, Nature protection seems like something very general, but by protecting nature, we make a better environment for ourselves and therefore, we help protect and improve our health, a cause that even the most selfish person on earth can not oppose.
Environment starts from home, to school, streets, shops, bars, clubs etc. the biggest problem lies at public places like schools and streets. Lets analyze it step by step:
-We go out of the house and we are running late. Instead of driving to school why don’t we take the bike or public transportation? They’re cheaper and speaking long terms they are very good for your health as well.
-We are in our school yard and we get hungry. We take out a chocolate and unwrap it. Now instead of throwing the wrapping paper on the ground why don’t we put it in the garbage bin, or better yet throw it in separate garbage bins.
-we start the lesson. The sun is shining bright outside. Why should we close the curtains and turn on the lights, when we can easily let the sun do it’s job, and therefore save energy and also protect the environment.
-A bit later we get thirsty and we want to drink something. Instead of using plastic glasses, we should use eco-friendly paper ones, that can be recycled.
-On the way home we try something that tastes horrible so it makes us spit out in the street. Why do we spit, litter and pollute the streets when we take care of our homes yelling not to do this or that because the house and the furnitures have just been cleaned.
Do we have that lack of
