Third meeting of the Czech team

On 3 May we had our third meeting about the project. We split into two groups which will be dealing with one topic each. The first group will deal with the issue of waste management and the second group will deal with energy management in our town (this topic has replaced the original topic of transport). We watched a presentation which we made within our technical subjects. It was about waste recycling generally and about old paper processing. This will be inspiration for our further work. On the web pages of project we read articles from meetings of the other members of the "green gang". We will now focus on waste management in Spálené Poříčí (sorting of beverage cartons, transport of waste, waste collection points, places for storage of biowaste etc.) and we will explore how the citizens in our town produce heat and what we can do to improve it.

Second meeting of the Czech team

Hello. We would like to introduce ourselves briefly. We are students of the secondary school in Spálené Poříčí which is a little town in the west of the Czech Republic. We are studying the field PROTECTION OF NATURE AND ENVIRONMENT. We joined this project in order to work on ecological issues of our region. Our main philosophy is the idea that we all have to begin with small steps, small things we can do to protect our environment, because a lot of small steps together make one huge step. That is why we will deal with the situation of environmental protection in our town. We will focus on the issue of composting and recycling of boxes and we will also deal with the situation of transport. Our second meeting took place on 19 April. We planned the next meeting for 2 May. In the next meeting we are going to present information we learned from our local authorities concerning the situation of transport and composting in our town.

First meeting of the Czech team

On 8 March 2011 our Czech team at the secondary school in Spalene Porici had its first meeting about its participation in the project Think Green Think Young. We discussed the time schedule of the project, created a blog to be able to add contributions and distributed tasks for the next session.
