Today having a fountain in every school means saving money, less plastic pollution, more safety on water quality, less weight to carry to school. The school is carrying on a project through which the young people of each class will monitor for a period the daily consumption of plastic bottles of water used in their class. A monitoring and survey tool will have to be prepared to be administered and made to be filled in by the students with their name and age. how much he drinks and how much he spends on drinking per day.
The iam of this project is to make studentsunderstand: • how much it costs and how polluting it is to drink water in plastic bottles; to raise awareness and make students aware of consuming water from the tap. • to reduce the excessive amount of plastic to be disposed of • to learn how to exercise an active and eco-sustainable citizenship A brochure will have to be developed to be distributed in the school, which serves to make children and their families aware of drinking from the tap, which reports in summary of all the data collected by the students in the table. A fountain will have to be placed inside the school, which will allow water to be drunk by spending less and reducing plastic waste.
