GLM Sustainable continues its efforts to alleviate environmental impact and foster a culture of caring for our resources. In the framework of COP16, students from this group have been working to explain what this event is about and the relevance of Colombia as the host of this globally impactful meeting.
COP16 is an opportunity for our school to continue discussing biodiversity and how we can strengthen initiatives that have been developed over the years.
- Sustainability Initiatives at Gimnasio La Montaña
1. School garden and green spaces: To teach students about ecosystem conservation, healthy eating, and the importance of green spaces in urban areas.
2. Workshops, meetings, and educational activities to raise environmental awareness among students and staff, addressing topics such as climate change, biodiversity, and sustainability. These activities also allow for the proposal of solutions to global environmental issues.
3. Waste separation at the source (bins for different types of waste, battery collection, Tetra Pak container collection, plastic cap collection, among others): Within the school, we ensure that students and staff properly separate waste and recycle.
4. Awareness program on the circular economy within the educational community: Integrating efficient resource use and waste reduction into school projects.
5. Reduction of plastic use in the school: Promoting sustainable alternatives.
