Schools to tidy their environment

Schools to tidy their environment

What change do you want to make now to address the climate change crisis? End the nonsense of thousands of children dumping their waste into the environment everyday What do you need to make this change? Courage from local authorities, and politicians.

Points

Everyday day thousands of school children all over Scotland casually dump their plastic and other waste into the environment and local council litter pickers remove a fraction of it . Educate the children in sustainabilty including practical lessons on litter picking.

not sure what the specific suggestion is though?

To Scott. The specific suggestion is to educate children on sustainability , to stop treating the environment as a rubbish tip, take ownership of their local environment and improve it including getting out and removing the rubbish they have dumped. Climate wise recycling and reducing their rubbish should reduce energy consumption plus addressing the wider environmental impact of plastic pollution Requires education and enforcement.
