EUAP HONG KONG-EU SCHOOL PROJECT: GREEN LIVING AND SUSTAINABILITY IN THE COMMUNITY LIMITING FOOD By Group 29 WASTE TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Stages of the project Results Video Our solution Conclusion INTRODUCTION Group 29 members - Iris Nogueroles Langa - Máximo Beltramino - Chung Yin Lam (Martin) - Yat Fung Wong (Tommy) - Cheuk Hin Leung (Ernest) We decided to focus on limiting food waste as our topic since it affects us daily and is something that can make our living greener and more sustainable if we all try our best to achieve it. STAGES OF THE PROJECT Planning - Decide on topic and goals - Produce working timetable Implementation - Observe habits and patterns by conducting a survey - Research - Propose feasible solutions - Take action Evaluation - Compare results with overseas teammates - Explain whether solution can be implemented on a larger scale RESULTS We conducted a survey in our school and then processed the data for some of the questions into a pie chart. These three are from the results of the International School of the Hague in the Netherlands. VIDEO Here is a video that explains our work during the project in further detail. OUR SOLUTION Our solution to limit food waste was to digitally produce a small but informative leaflet to educate our school about limiting food waste. This way, they would be able to share their knowledge with friends and family, spreading the word about food waste and making our community more aware of it. Sections we have included in our leaflet are: - What is food waste? - Understanding labels - What you can do - Foods with the weird look - What is already being done We have also included a link to the results of the survey so that people can see what others do to limit food waste CONCLUSION From this project, we can conclude that the best solution to limit food waste is to educate others about it as education is the best tool to solve a problem. Our leaflet was made to educate our school but it can be slightly altered to be implemented on a larger scale in neighbourhoods and the city to have a greater impact on limiting food waste.
