The year has already come into its own, and I have just had time to sum up my work as an Ambassador of the eco-generation in 2018.
Of course, I, like all of you, dear friends, tried to involve the maximum number of people in our community. For this purpose, pages were created in social networks. Regularly published posts and articles on eco-topics in them. And the feedback received was good.
The most important thing in 2018, I believe the implementation of the project of separate garbage collection in their school. I am studying at a school at Moscow state University. We live here separately from our parents, the school gathers children from all corners of our vast country. The school is considered to be advanced, innovative, but there was no such important mechanism as separate garbage collection. By joining forces with the guys in the class, as well as with the graduate of our school - Adilya Shakirova - an environmental student of Moscow state University, we were able to introduce a separate garbage collection at the end of 2018.
We bought the containers ourselves, signed them, pasted leaflets at the school, and held a meeting at which we told the students of our school about the innovation. Difficulties in the implementation of our ideas within the school did not arise, the guys supported us. But there were difficulties associated with the removal of garbage. The company with which we initially agreed on this, was not punctual enough, violated the terms of garbage collection. But now everything is in order. We managed to agree on strict compliance with the terms of garbage collection.
Unfortunately, I have not yet managed to hold any large-scale eco-event inside the gymnasium to involve even more colleagues in this movement. Students of final classes are very busy preparing for admission to the University, participation in intellectual competitions, Olympiads. But I tried my hand at the children's audience. And the result exceeded my expectations-children were very receptive audience to environmental problems.
On Christmas holidays I stayed with my parents in my hometown. And my mother-she is a teacher, leads developing groups in children and adolescents. I asked her to let me in one of the classes to hold a quiz on eco-topics and brainstorming about the pollution of the planet with plastic. She agreed. And now I have my first experience of environmental education of children in this area. Perhaps it was at this moment that I felt like a real eco-Ambassador.
In January, I plan to interview the leaders of the eco-movement in Russia and post the interview on the official Facebook page. For example, Volodymyr Matsyuk, a businessman from Chelyabinsk. He was one of the first in Russia began processing batteries, which are collected for him Media Markt and IKEA".
I want to thank all the eco-ambassadors and mentors for the feedback I received on my articles last year. I am pleased to know that I am a part of such a large, friendly and responsible community.
