Art Installation: the ocean invaded by plastic

IES Clara Campoamor from Alaquàs, within the Erasmus project, and focused on the objective 14, life below water, has made an action to raise awareness of the big problem of the proliferation of plastic and its accumulation in the water of rivers and seas.
Plastic takes hundreds of years to degrade.
Plastic that reaches the sea implies a great danger to the life of the sea creatures. In addition, many species ingest microplastics that, through the food chain, end up at our table; these plastics are very dangerous for our health.
There is only one way to avoid this terrible pollution: a dramatic reduction in the use of plastic, especially that one of a single use; and the personal engagement with a proper recycling of all the plastic material we use in our daily life.
We have made a recreation that represents the ocean invaded by plastic.
The trash material used has been collected in previous actions such as the cleaning of the beach of Massamagrell, the Alameda of Alaquàs and the playground of the school.

ECO-AUDIT PROJECT

The eco-audit can be defined as aspects on different concepts (water, electricity, recycling, mobility, consumption, noise ) related to the environment and different countries.
In order to know and reduce the consumption and improvement of the environmental qualities of the world where we live, which was one of the main issues of the project, which was the 2030 agenda, it can also be said that it is a learning technique to raise awareness of the sustainable use of the previous resources.
In this project the students of Spain, Germany, Italy, Greece have worked in the eco-audit making various projects like
We first contacted them through a "Twinspace" forum. To put in common a series of questions which would later help us to make some graphs. Once we put the questions in common, each country answered them and once we had the results we obtained the percentages. Finally we passed everything to different graphics

Visiting the Port of Valencia

As part of our Erasmus + project “Agenda 2030: that’s our challenge!”, grade 9h students have visited the Port of Valencia. The Port Authority of Valencia (PAV), which trades under the name of VALENCIAPORT, is the public body responsible for running and managing three state-owned ports along an 80km stretch of the Mediterranean coast in Eastern Spain: Valencia, Sagunto and Gandía.

Thanks to its strategic location and its dynamic area of influence, the Port of Valencia is a key player in Spain’s foreign trade.

Valenciaport is Spain’s leading Mediterranean port in terms of commercial traffic, mostly containerised cargo, due to its dynamic area of influence and an extensive network connecting it to major world ports.

Valenciaport is not only a key element in promoting the Valencia Region abroad, but also the maritime gateway for production and consumer goods to and from the entire Iberian Peninsula.

Recycling with the five senses

In Valencia we generate an average of 1.4 kilograms of rubbish per person per day, and this creates an unsustainable situation in the medium and long term for the environment.

As part of our Erasmus + project “Agenda 2030: that’s our challenge!”, grade 9^h students have participated in the workshop “Recycling with the five senses”.
