A Sustainable School Under the Changing Climate
By: Isabel Sibaja and Annabelle Conti
INTRODUCTION
As the world and the climate are changing, so must we. Oceans are being clogged with
plastic pollution and our air is being plagued by gases and particles. Not only does it affect our
environment, but us as well. So, what is our school doing to make us green? Many schools do this
just to get the reputation of a green school so that more people are attracted to it. If a school is able
to say that they are green, more people might want to transfer there. Going green is a goal that
should not be motivated by the fact that a school wants more students. Saving the environment
from the waste and destruction that we have already inflicted on it is a difficult feat, and the world
is already crumbling. So, if we really want to do something, we should be motivated by the loss we
have already experienced. Whole species are gone because we refuse to believe that we are the cause
of it. Our home needs our help, and by taking this small step, we hope that our school should inspire
many more.
