I am really into environmental activism. I started an online club with my friend at school focused on making projects to better our planet. Some of my hobbies include hiking,…

EcoPact- A Kid’s Environmental Society 3 years agoHi, I live in Austin, and there’s this place right outside of Austin that have these really amazing asian elephants, but there making them do tricks, and shows for people. All the trainers have a bullock in their hand, which they refer to as a “guide” for the elephants. I really want to help the elephants, but I’m not sure how. Any ideas???

Hmm… Are they hurting the elephants with the bullock? That sounds like a problem. If they are hurting the elephants, there may be laws in Texas against that. You might be able to report them, but only if they’re breaking the law. Other than that you might just talk to the trainers about them and learn some more about what’s happening. Maybe you…[Read more]

EcoPact- A Kid’s Environmental Society 3 years agoGood news! Our school board passed the climate resolution unanimously! If you want to see what it looks like (so that you can maybe get your own school board to pass one) here’s a link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mZp_S1JuoYmdm41bH6JOZ0Jua5gtwfHD/view?usp=sharing

EcoPact- A Kid’s Environmental Society 3 years, 1 month agoDid you know that every minute, a small city block’s worth of trees in Canada’s majestic boreal forest is clearcut by one company? It’s probably one you know, too. Procter & Gamble, which own the toilet paper brand Charmin, is doing this. And these trees are old growth, meaning that they are especially good at stopping climate change. The forests…[Read more]

EcoPact- A Kid’s Environmental Society 3 years, 2 months agoHeyyy! 🙂 New idea for something you can do at your school if you haven’t already: go to your school board or student council and ask/talk to them about creating a climate resolution. A climate resolution is basically where the members (president, secretary, treasurer, etc.) sign to say that they acknowledge that climate change is real, but that…[Read more]
