Green Zone

In the society, there are two groups of people one who effect and neglect the environment. And other group who are facing the consequences i.e. students. So, we need to aware these two groups of people.

Green Zone is an event which is the central idea of Green Bhairahawa and the concept which can help to bring sustainable change in the behavior and attitude of students. Students are the leader of the future. So they should be aware about the effect and consequences of climate change that would start showing some effect sooner.

When we were student, our most of the productive time was with our friends while talking, laughing, playing and discussing with them in playground. So, in this event we will place a board in one corner of playground where it would be visible, suitable and permitted by school management.

The green board will contain three section heading with effect, consequences and solution regarding environment issues. First two section will represent effect and consequences on the current environmental issues of Bhairahawa given by experts respectively. But the solution section of green board will be blank because of the following reasons:

1)      We don’t want follower. We want Climate Hero.

2)       When they will come with solution they will talk with their friends about it and try to discuss.

3)      We want solution from students independently on their own daily experiences. Later on which can help us to know the local problem.

4)      When students will read the effect and consequences about the environment. They will try to relate those thing with their own activities. And as a solution they will write opposite of their activities which they are doing to pollute the local environment and the thing which they are not following to protect the environment.

Impact

When the student will write solution to control environment pollution. They will say their friend about the solution and ultimately s/he will be discussing about the solution with his friends. One side, it will help them to build leadership capabilities and the other side they will be implementing that solution in his/her daily life directly or indirectly through continuous observation of the solution written by him.

For instance: If Ram writes “I will only throw sweet wrapper in dustbin” in solution section of green board. Then on first day when he will buy sweet and throw the sweet wrapper on road. At that time, he will not think about the sweet wrapper. But he will remember his mistake when he see his solution on green board next day.

After that whenever he will buy sweet, he will think twice before throwing sweet wrapper. Finally he will be motivated towards throwing sweet wrapper and other things in dustbin.

Sustainability

 To encourage and motivate the students to participate in the “Green Zone” we will announce a local competition “Best Green Zone school of Bhairahawa”. In which student have to maintain clean and green area inside their school and college. At the end of the year, we will give the award to one school who will be continuous involve in making and maintaining their school area clean and green.
