Students from Escola Básica e Secundária de Albufeira Promote Sustainability with Ma Petite Planète
Several key areas for the planet's future
At Escola Básica e Secundária de Albufeira, sustainability has taken center stage in education. Recently, students actively participated in the educational platform Ma Petite Planète, completing challenges that inspire real change in caring for the environment and society.
The initiative engaged students in several key areas for the planet’s future:
♦ Biodiversity: Students demonstrated concern for ecosystems by taking action to protect and promote wildlife.
♦ Healthy eating: They encouraged more conscious and sustainable food choices, showing how what we consume impacts the environment.
♦ Sustainable mobility: They adopted eco-friendlier transportation methods, such as walking, cycling, or carpooling, reducing their carbon footprint.
♦ Solidarity: Collaborative projects strengthened the sense of community and emphasized the importance of helping others.
♦ Energy and resources: They discovered practical ways to save energy and responsibly manage natural resources.
The importance of small actions
Each completed challenge was more than just an activity; it was a concrete step toward a more sustainable future and an opportunity to learn about the importance of small actions in combating climate change and fostering a more supportive society.
Escola Básica e Secundária de Albufeira demonstrates that environmental education can and should be integrated into daily school life, preparing students to become more conscious and active citizens in protecting the planet.
