Sustainable World - Costa Rica

Environment   Aug 23, 2017 by sofia ferreiro
  • A) What is your vision for a sustainable world?

For a sustainable world there are a lot of different and very important factors, one of them is that we need to learn how we use our resources correctly. Sustainability is also an important factor because its the quality of not being harmful to the environment. But we cannot forget also about a crucial word for a sustainable world and that ir balance. For me there are a lot of things to help the world to be more sustainable but the main problem that we need to change is education, why? Education is the process of acquisition of knowledge. When people are educated correctly they know what issues are in the world and are not selfish to the planet and other because knowing all the problems that the Earth is facing with the environment instead of wasting water or using the car to go to the shop next door they would know the consequences for their behavior and will start helping more the planet and taking care of what we have! 

  • B) What are you planning to do to make this vision a reality?

Since my vision mostly embraces about education my plans are to make a campaign about the problems that Earth is facing but not only talking to the kids It would be more about playing and watching videos, in that way the kids will remember more and have more fun. 

  • C) What impact has colonization had on our journey to a sustainable planet?

Colonization had a big impact on our journey because since we took the indigenous places for the cities to start developing and damaged nature and those reserves.

Absolutely Sofia, and in  total agreement with Mateus de Morais, education is a very proactive force in addressing climate change, it does not only help in developing and strengthening our capacities to make good judgement and choices, it  is also relevant for innovation and creative use of technology.

Wonderful idea to teach kids about climate change in a fun way...:)

It would be great to share your ideas about sustainable ways to develop our cities... Looking forward to reading about it

Powerful pix showing education and sustainability....

Great ideas!
