In this project the
students at my school will create 80cm x 80cm x 80cm Carbon Cubes. http://www.zerofootprintfoundation.org/schools-universities/the-carbon-cube/
The project is
managed by Erin in Grade 6 student under the direction
of
Monique Martin
These carbon cubes will be collaged with facts on how to reduce
our carbon footprint. The cubes will create a visual
image for my friends and the students at my school to understand the
size of a kilogram of carbon and how
much carbon they are actually
reducing when they follow some simple steps. We want to make three for
each
classroom or maybe more. We will create a display in front of our
school
on Friday March 25
to celebrate and encourage people to participate in Earth Hour. The
cubes will then be packaged up and sent to Ottawa.
They are going to be displayed and used as big play cubes at the Rideau
Canal Festival. The Rideau Canal Festival is an environmentally
friendly festival with
zero carbon footprint as its goal. Ms.Martin is involved with the RCF,
which created the connection to this project and our school in
Saskatoon.
