Guess Who Won Our Clubs Fall Quest?

This fall, we challenged eco-clubs across Canada and the United States to reduce waste in creative ways. The winners of our Fall Quest, the Radical Reduction Revolution, are… 

Drumroll, please!

AAM Eco-Club – Mississauga, ON

The AAM Eco-Club challenged each other to a friendly door-decorating competition. The rules? Recycled materials only! This club got crafty with magazines, newspapers, and even used plates and cups, all to decorate their doors for the holidays. 

And that’s not all! The AAM Eco-Club also turned plastic bottles into something way cooler: plant pots! Each of these DIY pots will nurture a tiny seed–a big improvement from wasting away in landfill, we say!

Club 5 – Scarborough, ON

Club 5 got creative with paper plates and recycled scraps to craft this year’s Christmas decorations! Plus, they signed a pledge to reduce waste everywhere they can–at home, at school, and in their community!

Wheatley Green Club – St. Catharine’s, ON

Who needs brand new gift bags? The Wheatley Green Club used recycled materials to craft their own unique creations. Bet these looked perfect under the tree!

Plus, the Wheatley Green Club designed their own posters to educate their classmates about the problem of ocean plastic! These colorful fliers point out how easy it is for turtles to mistake a tasty jellyfish–well, tasty to turtles, at least!–for a dangerous plastic bag. 

Prince of Peace Eco-Club – St. Catharine’s, ON

The Prince of Peace Eco-Club made pumpkin spice season last with these spooky and sustainable decorations! No need to buy anything new–just pretty fallen leaves and recycled paper here.

Girls Go Green – Nacogdoches, TX

Girls Go Green completed the Radical Reduction Revolution! Together, they all signed our pledge to reduce waste and finished the quest! Can we get a round of applause for Hannah, Emily, Abby, Allison, Clara, Betty, Emmerie, Claire, and Ezra? 

Liberty Walk Park Rangers – Toronto, ON

You know what they say: one kid’s trash, another kid’s treasure! The Liberty Walk Park Rangers held a swap meet to trade their toys with one another. What a great way to cut down on consumption! Plus, Sonic, Barbie, and George Pig can breathe easy–they’re safe from the landfill!

All of these clubs have won a virtual meet-and-greet with our animal ambassadors! Plus, they’ve received a special pennant to fly with pride.

The winter quest is starting soon. Would you like to complete it with your class or school eco club? Let us know in the comments!
