(INVOLVEMENT)- Getting the community excited to recycle!

Not enough people recycle, or don't recycle all recyclable items. So we will educate, make sure the word gets our there, and hand out prizes for making our community a better place--

Trees and Leaves

Trees have been around for many thousands of years. Not everybody knows that trees are an important componant of the earth. They help produce oxygen, while reducing carbon dioxide.

The 29th Day Preventive Task Force: Discussion - Education - Action

The 29th Day Preventive Task Force is a Student Activist Group that is still in it's first year. Our slogan is Discussion - Education - Action. We seek to make our campus, our community, and our world a better place through several programs. Some of our efforts include: Recycling Efforts - from picking up trash and recycling the salvagable materials to encouraging our peers, professors, and campus staff to recycle.

Gardens and Recycling

Save Our School and Planet!!! S.O.S.P’s mission is to try and save the environment, save the school, and create awareness about environmental issues. One way we plan to accomplish our mission is to make our school more environmental by planting trees and flowers around our local area (our school for example). Planting trees in your community really is one of the best things you can do for your environment- and the planet!

Water conservation and utilization project

The problems that bad irrigation can cause are flooding of the school for example, the flooding of Ms. Mead’s room and the office. It can also destroy our flowers and plants and cause water damage. Standing water and wet materials are a breeding ground for microorganisms, including bacteria and mold.

Converting One Man's Trash Into Another Man's Hope

As a frequent attendant of the local 24 Hour Fitness Gyms, I noticed that the bottles and cans frequently consumed by the fitness enthusiasts were always being thrown away inside the regular trash. However, with such a strong message in the community to recycle, I felt that it was necessary to make a change for both the environment and the world. In California, a CRV tax is placed on every single beverage container purchased. However, there are many recycling stations were the CRV can be redeemed, with a proceed of $.05 for containers less than 24 oz.

Ecosystem Management

We take care of our local ecosystems and clean up our areas of the enviroment and we also teach people and show them how to properly recycle and dispose of certain products. We would like to get this grant to help us with cleaning up our area and the teaching of recycling we would also like some of it to go towards supporting a sandcat exhibit at our local zoo.

OK Green Project Documentary

One of the most influential ways to make a lasting impression is through visual aid. This is why my friends and I would like to make a documentary to promote awareness within our community. Awareness of what? Awareness of our addiction to foreign oil and the pollution it creates. The resources we are abusing. The plastic bottles we consume that are now located in a trash can, or even worse, on the side of the road. We will capture, on film, the problems caused by not recycling. The problems caused by using fossil fuels as a main energy source.
