Composting Initiative
Edgerton, Kansas, USA
Project Summary
85 students explored EnROADS simulation and Bitmoji classroom activities while planning a composting program to address food waste.
Detailed Story
Betsy’s class explored the EnROADS simulation along with the Bitmoji classroom activities. While they haven’t yet fully implemented their action projects, they are planning to start composting as a means to address food waste. As Betsy advises, “Start simple. Students love to dream, but when you are able to make their idea more manageable, it will be able to happen. Students love to see the fruits of their labor!”
Impact Statement
85 students developed planning skills for a school composting program that will reduce cafeteria food waste and greenhouse gas emissions.
