Exploring Ecological Sustainability

After a week filled with knowledge and place-based education at Metro Vancouver’s Sustainability Toolbox 2018, the exploration of sustainability in our communities and the connection between money, people and nature have been brought up in engaging conversations regarding our current challenge against tackling ecologically damaging habits.

Our inquiry focus group discussing our ocean health initiative with our teacher-mentor Wendi.

Through collaboration between youth across Metro Vancouver and dedicated teachers from various School Districts, the success and failure stories of schools’ ecological initiatives have been shared, as well as common problems in our larger communities.

I’ve been able to put forward my perspective and curiosity on plastic disruption, to our larger topic of ocean health – along side interests of others in our inquiry focus group bringing up intriguing knowledge on our various ecosystems.
