  1. ND Cares (Energy Ambassadors)

  2. Junior Ambassadors • We go to elementary schools and educate younger students there, about their environment and what they can do to protect and save it. We love to recycle!!

  3. Past Initiatives • There are many projects we have done is the past: • Water Bottle Filling Stations • Rain Garden • Composting • School Audits on Energy Consumption • Light’s Out Fridays • Plant’N Pulls

  4. Plant’N Pulls • A group of students go out into the community and remove invasive species. Thanks to many volunteers, including ND Secondary students, more than 180 cubic metres of invasive English ivy have been removed from the Delta Nature Reserve. Hundreds of native shrubs and ferns have been planted instead.

  5. What is a Rain Garden? Whenever it rains, runoff water containing toxins, road salt, grit, excess fertilizers, pesticides, cigarette butts, plastic and paper enter our local streams The polluted water harms fish health and is bad for the local ecosystem A rain garden naturally absorbs and filters runoff water, instead of allowing it to flow into local streams.

  6. The Completed Rain Garden

  7. Aluminum Water Bottle Project • In the past, we sold Aluminum Water Bottles in the foyer • They were for five dollars • Can still be bought, if you wish • They were a great success

  8. Benefits of Aluminum Bottles • Plastic water bottles cost about $2.00 or more per day • Aluminum Water Bottles cost about $10 per year • In the overall scheme, which costs less?

  9. It’s just filtered tap water, even declared that their water comes from a well which they then filter! Why not just buy a Water Filter from Walmart or Canadian Tire?

  10. Some Things that You can do to Help • One of the easiest ways to conserve energy is unplugging your electronics. • Turn the lights off in a room that nobody is in • Throw your trash • in the proper bins

  11. Ways to Help • Recycling helps the environment a lot. • There are many ways you can recycle.

  12. Thank you for Listening! And please, help save the environment before it’s completely out of our hands.
