Our Planet, Our Say - an eco-friendly youth Think Tank, is not just a bunch of hot air on a hot topic. It’s a chance for children to discuss environmental issues that are important to them, and have their voice heard by politicians, teachers, parents and the world.
Our eco experts have selected our Think Tank and the green wheels are in motion.
Our Think Tank in action
Lead by eco-expert, Julia Hailes, our Think Tank of green-minded 7 to 14 year olds, will meet-up over the course of the year for three Think Tanks to discuss real environmental challenges;
- Think Tank 1 – Recycling
Our think tankers will sort out the junk from the great recycling ideas that can be used again and again and again and…
- Think Tank 2 – Renew
Our think tankers will delve into renewable energy, it’s all about power to the people!
- Think Tank 3 - Re-educated
For their final Think Tank, it’s all about sustainability and keeping the green dream alive!
- Downing Street
With green ideas and lots of new knowledge under their green belts, our Think Tank will work with our eco-experts forming ideas to present to Parliament. They’re going to see if they can influence the people who run the country, and make a change for the good of the planet!
What is a Think Tank?
A Think Tank is normally a group of adults who get together to talk about some of the biggest challenges that face the world today to come up with ideas and solutions.
But Our Planet, Our Say is a Think Tank with a difference - it consists of children!
