This month has been a huge success for my Environmental club, Reduce, Remove, Conserve (or RRC for short.) The club is an organization that will help the environment with its problems with waste, specifically plastic pollution. Environment pollution is one of the major problems we have been facing globally, and to reduce our necessities is the biggest concern as it accumulates pollution. Starting with the wildlife implications and ending with the greenhouse gases it emits while degrading, plastic waste, in particular, is specifically damaging to the environment. Protection of our environment is one of our major responsibilities and a natural way of caring for ourselves and for our future generations. I started my club on the platform of reducing the amount of plastic waste being used on a day to day basis going into the environment. I started this club at the start of the school year, and we’ve had cleanups, participated in challenges, and started plastic recycling at our school.

This month, we have planned on expanding our recycling even further. While before, we only have recycling bins in 3 places around the school, we are planning to put recycling bags in every classroom in our school and in the fine arts building and in the gym.
