On Saturday, May 5, Grade 11 students Brooke Antman, Marina Levit, Nikayla Little, Emma Joyal, Dores Shenouda, and Jessica Sui will be joined by Members of the Legislative Assembly Mr. Rob Altemeyer, Wolseley, and Dr. Jon Gerrard, River Heights, to host a forum on environmental issues.
This student-led event, Project Green, aims to engage members of the community in learning about environmental issues and taking action towards bettering our local and global society, says Jessica, one of six student organizers.
Project Green welcomes speakers who are politicians, local businesses leaders, and representatives from local organizations. Participants will be given time to explore activities for topics including ocean health, carbon pricing, environmental policy, saving the bees, environmental psychology, and more. Additionally, artists will be painting works live throughout the event, raffling their art with all proceeds directed to World Wildlife Fund.
