10 Eco Areas

Biodiversity

Although it is extremely hard to determine the exact number of species that we share the planet with, we know that it is a lot and that there is great diversity.

Energy

School’s have two main uses for energy: heating and electricity. Can you address both to help lower your school’s impact on climate change?

Global Citizenship

Taking an active role in your community and making our planet more peaceful, sustainable and fair.

Healthy living

People are part of the environment. We want both to be healthy. How does your school promote choices that are good for us and good for the environment?

Litter

Reducing litter, which harms wildlife and costs millions to clear every year.

Marine

Helps us understand our impacts on the world’s oceans and how we can make positive differences for our seas.

School Grounds

A school’s grounds are a fantastic environment in which to let the imagination run wild. How will our school make the most of its outside space?

Transport

Schools can do a lot to improve the way their staff and pupils travel. Can we encourage our pupils to try new modes of transport?

Waste

Waste comes in many different forms – food, paper, electrical, metal – it can all be reduced, reused or recycled. How can we manage waste better?

Water

Water; the stuff of life. What can your school do to use this precious resource more responsibly?
