THE PROBLEM:

Even with the numerous extreme weather events and the vast amounts of waste being generated, many of us are still waiting on others to take action. Our project aims to get students to step up and get involved in their own way. We do this through organizing collection drives and beach cleanups that often cover parts of recycling that may be overlooked.

WHAT WE WANT TO ACHIEVE:

Our VIA hopes to raise awareness about the environment and sustainability, and educate students on more specific and different aspects of the environment that they might not have known before. We also aim to instil a sense of responsibility for the environment in students and teach them to care more for the environment through taking part in our initiatives. With climate change gaining traction in recent years, and the increasing urgent need to take action, it is pivotal to get as many people interested and passionate about the environment so as to tackle this impending crisis.
