Green Team Recycling Tips for November:

Did you know that fast fashion is a major contributor to carbon emissions, and therefore climate change?  
 
Fun challenge: Check your clothes labels to see where your clothing items were made.  Many items are made in Asia.  Oftentimes the raw materials (fabric, thread, dye, etc.) are imported from elsewhere.  Then the item has to travel back across the globe for you to wear it.   The transportation alone comes with a major carbon footprint.  Look at a globe and trace with your finger to see how far your clothes had to travel for you to wear them.
 
The more we can upcycle clothing or repurpose something old to be something new again, the better off our planet is.  Way to go Bobcats on supporting and hosting our 3rd Annual Spirit Swap.  We are all making our planet a better place!

  

If you want to receive a school directory, you must be a PTSA member.  We welcome your support - thank you!
