I think it’d be a good idea to run a clothing drive and have it open for students and staff members to donate old clothes. Where we donate them is up to the class. Having a source for students to give back to their community through recycling would be cool]]> 2023-01-26 16:38:32 UTC https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457878902 194714_ https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457881373 Buy solar power charger banks for each classroom so students can charge their phones]]> 2023-01-26 16:40:02 UTC https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457881373 https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457881435 We put recycling bins in every room and in the lunch room to encourage students to be eco friendly.]]> 2023-01-26 16:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457881435 https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457881465 !. We should buy solar panels and put them on the roof to have solar energy at school. 
2. We should stop printing so many things and instead put everything online to stop wasting paper. 
3. I think that a cool idea would be to plant more trees and start an organic garden near the school entrance. 
4. I started going to school by bike and I think it would be great to encourage more people at school to use them instead of cars or buses which aren't good for the environment. 
5. We should buy recycling trash bins instead of single big ones. 
6. We should do cloth containers where students and teachers could put clothes they no longer use so that someone else could grab them if they like them. ]]> 2023-01-26 16:40:06 UTC https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457881465 194714_ https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457915208 Build a mini greenhouse garden outside the school with perennial plants.]]> 2023-01-26 17:02:31 UTC https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457915208 https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457915494 1. I think that we should reduce food waste, because it's huge at our school right now. School has more food than kids are taking and the food is usually very bad so students aren't eating what they are taking. ]]> 2023-01-26 17:02:43 UTC https://padlet.com/newhavenpublicschools/bfx0knwcodx41oj7/wish/2457915494
