The Plastic Purge
Our project aims to reduce our plastic use and improve our enviroment. The issue of plastic is overlooked and completely forgotten about. As a YSI project, the issue of plastic has never been done before. Our project is unique and important. It is an issue that people don't realise effects them. Our project means a lot to our class and we hope once you learn about our project and the steps that we are taking to reduce plastic usage you will be as passionate as we are. Young Social Innovators Young Social Innovators (YSI) believes that young people are a powerful and largely untapped force for change in their local communities and in wider society. Promoting and leading the way in education for social innovation in Ireland, Young Social Innovators encourages, motivates and creates new opportunities for young people to actively participate in the world around them. It seeks to engage young people wherever they are – in schools, communities, youth organisations, in families, in or out of work – and prepare them to fully take part in civic action whether through volunteerism, community service, service-learning, citizenship education, social entrepreneurship and innovation. |
