Shortly describe your project

The students become “Environmental Agents” and are given the mission of reducing plastic waste at the school. Each class earns points through various activities. Over the course of two weeks, there is a new weekly challenge in which the “environmental agents,” playing their respective roles anonymously, monitor the following aspects of the week’s focus in a fun way: - Zero-Plastic Snack: Who can manage to bring a snack without any plastic packaging? - Bottle Check: Points for reusable bottles.
