The TDSB is taking a direction on climate change.
On Feb 3rd the TDSB's Board of Trustees approved the "Go Green: Climate Change Action Plan". I encourage everyone to read through this document to see what the school board has planned for the future. It outlines how the board is looking to reduce carbon emissions through the use of Solar PV systems, electric vehicles, waste pick up, and a very long term goal of market gardens.
It also includes what is already happening through the Eco-Schools program, which means that eco-literacy is still a big piece of the picture. There really isn't any point in doing this if we don't continue to educate our students about why being green is important.
