Water project

​In the spring of 2012, six students from Tenor High School in Milwaukee, their teacher, and two scientists from the University Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Freshwater Sciences undertook the film project for the water management side. With enthusiasm, they used their geographic situation to study the sustainability of water on the Great Lakes and the issue of sewage overflow. They try to come pu zith smart and sustainable solutions, helped by a few field trips on Lake Michigan, which is literately at their doorsteps.

​The Team People’s is a group of 5 girls and boys in their early teens studying at the People’s High School, an iconic entity located in the Goan capital Panjim which is celebrating its platinum jubilee in 2012. With the help of their science teacher and many scientists, officials  and NGO members, they take us into their local waste management issues. The municipal area of Panaji appears as a model to follow for the entire region, where the most common policies regarding wastes management tends to be ‘NIMBY’ (Not In My Back Yard!).

​Waste project

​​​​Eco-Cats, a student-initiated environmental club at UICCP (University of Illinois College Prep) have met every week for 3 months in order to study the issues related to the waste management in their city. After a trip Costa-Rica and Panama last year for a global youth ecological summit, the 4 leaders of the group try to use their environmental knowledges in order to compare lifestyles and wastes management. Their thoughts lead them to realize the influence of an active citizenship  and the importance of our daily activities ​​
