Η πλαστική σακούλα!

Τροφή για σκέψη....
 Έχετε αναρωτηθεί ποτέ....τί συμβαίνει άραγε με τις πλαστικές σακούλες που καταλήγουν στις θάλασσες και με τα πλαστικά καλαμάκια;;;

Global action days (9- 15 November ). Day 5:Reducing- Re-using- Recycling and Composting: massive attack against climate change....



In order to succeed, you need partners! We found them in the faces of the children of the 2nd Eco Kindergarten of Chania. They were invited to come by and share some.... of their worms for our compost. In return we gave them some brocoli, to grow in their own vegetable garden...







After, we became cooks,  and gather the ingredients  for the most nutritious "compost stew" Here is the recipe!



By composting, we are  becoming pro active on sustainability in two ways: 

1. we are reducing the amount of domestic waste to be transfered by trucks, (that emit CO2)

2. We are preparing our own organic  fertilizer and soil amendment....



Last, but not least, we started collecting bottle caps in order to reduce the amount of waste and at the same time,  to help a family, buy a wheelchair for their child in need

 Our school's Friends and Families demonstrate  great support in our efforts....

we are soooo thankful for this!!!
