Climate Action (School based Service as Action MYP 2)

  Aditya RAJ BHARDWAJ AADIRAJ SRIVASTAVA  SHAURYA VERMA HRISHAAN SHAH Overview -  we are the students of NESISM and we are here to make a change! We have created this blog to inform people about climate change and have found a way which can reduce climate change to an extent. Read the blog below to understand our ideas in detail. We are planning to make edible cutleries to replace plastic ones! Isn’t that fascinating! Plastic cutlery has a lot of impacts even before it gets to the market. This is because there is a lot of energy and carbon that are emitted during their production leading to the addition of heat and carbon to the atmosphere. This carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, combines with other greenhouse gases such as methane and ends up causing devastating climatic changes. Consequently, edible cutlery will avoid a high carbon footprint because it does not harm the environment in any way. Aim- To spread awareness about the causes and consequences of climate ch...

  Mihika Bhagat Tanush Tulaskar Omkar Vishwakarma  Dheer Padhiar Overview Measuring thousands of tons, discarded clothes and production waste are regularly shipped to developing countries like India. India is also one of the largest producers and exporter of textiles in the world. Not just are we producing waste in huge quantities, we are also accountable for the bulk of this world’s textile waste.  Goals To promote recycling textile waste Promoting the use of products made by textile waste. To understand the affordability, quality and the scales of different Indian products made by textile waste To make people aware of the problems Problems and Importance The fashion industry is producing nearly a billion garments every year After just 3-5 wears, 60% of the clothes we discard are being landfilled It takes 2,700 liters of water to make a single T-shirt The chemical dyeing of clothes accounts for 20% of the globe’s industrial waste water The fashion industry emits more gre...

       Plastic Fuel and Earth DHHYANI DAMA  AABHA PATIL  VED AMIN  SHIVEN SONI  SHREY  Outline Plastic is something that is all around us. We use it every day in each and everything. Let it be in cutlery or furniture like chairs, plastic had surrounded us from all the sides. But most of it lands up on our roads and buildings, which pollutes the world. Hence,  for our climate action, we thought of converting plastic waste that we see all around us into fuel, which will prevent climate change to increase.  "THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS 'AWAY' WHEN WE THROW ANYTHING AWAY IT MUST GO SOMEWHERE"  - Annie Leonard This was the quote by Annie Leonard that inspired us to convert plastic waste to fuel. We thought if the plastic has to be somewhere, then why not fuel, it will prevent fossil fuels from burning as well as reducing plastic waste.  This is a photo taken by Dhhyani Dama during her trip to Gujurat. We thought that why not try ...

  Climate Change   Greetings to one and all present here, Our group, Harshita, Darshit, Krish and Dev, are presenting our idea about Futuristic cars.    There are a lot of problems faced by the world because  of Global Warming, one of them is Climate change. We  as student leaders of NESISM have decided to work on  this global issue for the field of cars. Cars pollute the  environment by releasing harmful gases like Carbon  dioxide. This gas affects the entire atmosphere and  biosphere. It even consumes a lot of fuel for the  working of the Air Conditioner in the car. And now  fossil fuels are getting scarce.  So, we have two goals. The first is to reduce the CO2  which the vehicle releases and store it in a way it  doesn’t harm the environment. And second is to  produce some renewable energy, which will power the  AC function of the car, instead of the fuels doing the  work.   Our group has w...
