13. How make people accept our ECOsolution?
Education: our tool for success!
As you can see our project actually worked. We were so proud and right away we knew we had to let everyone know about our findings and the possibilities this ECO SOLUTION could have for all of us at school and our homes.
It was time to let everyone know, so we decided to make a big presentation at our school, for our teachers, fellow students the community and government officials. We wanted to show to as many people as possible that the same way we did this at school we can all implement ECO friendly ideas at our places of work and homes. It was time to EDUCATE and spread the words, because..
"Through education everyone can win!"
Working on the ThinkQuest page and our presentation
| Working on it!! | Stress is taking over!! | Folding the brochures and working on the souvenirs. |
The official school letter for our lecture!
Our purpose is to raise community awareness of existing problems on the effect of temperature on each of us. For this to take place we started inviting a talk in which we reported what we had done and the results we obtained with our investigation, the Directors of Middle and High schools of our people as human beings they are concerned together for an educational purpose and gave us permission to guide the school community about contemporary issues that are emerging.
It should be very clear that if a setback is required to be resolved bit of each to design a large mountain to face the problems as one community, so that they come to an end.
