Green Britain Day

Green Britain Day, which was on the 10th July 2009, was a deemed a triumphant success throughout the country! With more than 600 schools taking part in the EDF run initiative, all resolving to make Britain Greener.

Led all the way by Team Green Britain, and in conjunction with the Eden Project, the Green Britain Project strides confidently towards the 2012 Olympics, with an initiative to clean up the sources of energy Britain uses.

Getting school children involved was an inspired idea. Team Green Britain allows the younger generations to become involved in making Britain Greener, while also raising their social consciousness to a level whereby caring for the environment becomes second nature.

School children were invited to attend school wearing items of green clothing. Each child was also given a ‘foot print’. The foot print allowed each child to fill in their pledge, enabling them to express their intention
of contributing towards a more green way of life. Prints were then displayed throughout schools, and each child awarded with the team Green Britain sticker.

The Eco ethos has spread throughout many schools in Britain. Many strive to be awarded the coveted Green Flag, which is a symbol that denotes that the school has met Eco friendly targets and initiatives – such as recycling and gardening.

The Team Green Britain website has a plethora of ‘green ideas’ at the ready, for anyone looking for more ways to become Eco friendly. There are also up to date interviews, and the latest breaking news regarding events and products which promote a greener way of life.
