<p>FDR keeps thinking green and acting green.  The technology team and the operations department at FDR have recently collected all the school&#8217;s electric and electronic waste and delivered it at &#8220;Parque de la amistad” (<a title="RAEE-PERU" href="http://photos.amersol.edu.pe/v/FDR/green_theme/e_Waste/" target="_blank">see photos</a>).  Participating in the first &#8220;Collection of e-waste campaign&#8221; is another step in the right direction, this campaign is an effort of Municipalidad de Surco and the Ministerio del Medio Ambiente along with others to reduce the amount of e-waste that ends in the wrong place. Electronic equipment may contain very dangerous chemicals like nickel, cadmium and mercury, which if disposed along with regular trash could contaminate air, soil, superficial water and groundwater.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>THINK GREEN ACT GREEN</strong></p>
<p><strong>June 11, 2010</strong></p>
<p><strong>HISTORY:</strong></p>
<p>Toward the end of the 2008-09 school year, students chose “Think Green – Act Green” as the theme for 2009-10.  Students, teachers, and administrators who are passionate about environmental issues formed the Green Team in May of 2009.  In preparation for the 2009-10 school year, the Green Team created a mission statement and goals, established a website, and designated one Friday a month as a Green Day on the school’s 2009-10 calendar.  The Green Team asked that the school calendar be printed on recycled paper and put a “Green Tip” on each page to highlight an action our students and their families could take that would collectively make a difference to our environment. </p>
<p>Once the 2009-10 school year began, the Green Team started meeting weekly and continued to meet regularly throughout the year.  At these meetings, the Green Team focused on Green Day planning and working toward our eight initiatives. </p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>MISSION:  </strong></p>
<p>The purpose of &#8220;Think Green Act Green&#8221; is to empower the Roosevelt community to protect our planet and to develop socially responsible solutions for taking action. We want members of the Roosevelt community to make ecologically friendly choices in their daily routines.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">GOAL 1 &#8211; Institutionalize campus initiatives to reduce waste</span></strong></p>
<p>The Green Team worked on the following four initiatives:</p>
<p><strong>1. Establish a campus-wide recycling program – </strong>Presently, there are 24 sets of eco-bin stations located throughout our campus.  Paper, plastic, tetrapak, and trash are all disposed of in different colored bins.  The Middle School Eco Club created signs and taped them to the bins to show exactly what can be put in each one.<strong>   </strong>The Green Team continues to work with students to educate them regarding the proper use of the bins and also aids the workers in getting what they need to see the recycling process through to completion.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>  </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> 2. End the sale of bottled water on campus – </strong>The Green Team wanted to stop of sale of bottled water on campus, thereby reducing our consumption of plastic products.  The Green Team began work on this initiative by asking for the school’s water to be tested according to the most stringent Peruvian and US standards, as the school had to ensure that the water students would be drinking from the tap would be safe.  These test results have led to the purchase of a new filtration system which will be installed this July break.  The Green Team will pursue this goal once again during the 2010-11 school year and ask students to fill up water bottles instead of buying bottled water.</p>
<p><strong>3. Stop the sale and use of all Styrofoam on our campus</strong>– There has been a drastic reduction of the use of Styrofoam.  The Green Team will continue to work with the providers at our kiosks until there is no Styrofoam consumed at FDR.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>4. Establish a compost system</strong>– Our eco silos have been built and are being fed with organic materials left over after food preparation.  The Green Team will continue to focus their efforts on this initiative so that the eco silos are used at a greater capacity for producing our own fertilizer.     </p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Goal 2 &#8211; Promote sustainable practices through environmental education.</span></strong></p>
<p>The Green Team worked on the following four initiatives:</p>
<p><strong>5. Create a Green Team website with info for students, teachers, and parents – http://blog.amersol.edu.pe/green_team/ </strong></p>
<p>This website was featured in the January 2010 issue of IB World Magazine which highlighted successful environmental projects in IBO World Schools.  Our website has become an incredible resource for our school community.  It’s updated daily with resources including videos our students have made, videos produced professionally, links to other websites, lesson plans for teachers, and blog entries.  Please continue to visit our website next year.   <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>6. Plan Special Days/ Events – </strong>“Think Green – Act Green” organic cotton t-shirts, designed by one of our students, were sold throughout the year so that students and staff could wear them on each Green Day (one Friday per<strong> </strong>month).  The first Green Day of the year included a lively K-12 concert performed by a percussion band using only recycled materials.  Other Green Day activities have included workshops given by students and teachers, middle school and high school assemblies, games, presentations, and guest speakers. </p>
<p><strong>7.  Use of our facilities to promote green practices – </strong>This year a Gardening Club created and maintained a vegetable and flower garden, and they are expanding the garden for next year.  An experimental hydroponics garden was also set up and used with middle school students during the first semester. </p>
<p><strong>8. Connect Green Team goals to the curriculum – </strong>Ecological themes run through our curriculum in numerous areas, ranging from literature to science.  Many teachers used the Green Team website, especially on Green Days to highlight particular issues.  Next year, the Green Team hopes to calculate the school’s carbon footprint and to work toward being a carbon neutral school. </p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>GREEN TEAM PLANS FOR 2010-11</strong></p>
<p>The Green Team will continue to meet regularly and work toward our goals and initiatives.  The first Friday of each month will be designated as “Green T-shirt Day” and students will be allowed to come to school out of uniform and wear their Think Green – Act Green t-shirts.  Sale of these t-shirts will continue.   In addition, the Green Team will actively participate in the planning of the Global Issues Network (GIN) Conference scheduled to be hosted by our school on October 21-23, 2011. </p>

<p><strong>INFORME SOBRE EL AÑO TEMÁTICO 2009-2010</strong></p>
<p><strong>“Piensa Verde &#8211; Actúa Verde”</strong></p>
<p><strong>11 de junio de 2010</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>HISTORIA:</strong></p>
<p>Hacia el final del año escolar 2008-09, los alumnos eligieron &#8220;Piensa Verde – Actúa Verde&#8221; como tema para el 2009-10. Los alumnos, maestros y administradores interesados por los problemas del medio ambiente, formaron el Equipo Verde en mayo de 2009. En preparación para el año escolar 2009-10, el equipo verde creó una declaración de objetivos y metas, un sitio web y designó en el calendario escolar 2009-10 un viernes al mes como el “Día Verde”.  El Equipo Verde solicitó que el calendario escolar se imprima en papel reciclado y colocaron un &#8220;Consejo Verde&#8221; en cada página para destacar una acción de nuestros alumnos y sus familias y que en conjunto hayan hecho una diferencia en nuestro medio ambiente.</p>
<p>Una vez que se inició el año escolar 2009-10, el Equipo Verde comenzó sus reuniones semanales y continuó reuniéndose periódicamente durante todo el año. En estas reuniones, el Equipo Verde se centró en la planificación del “Día Verde” y trabajó para el cumplimiento de nuestras ocho iniciativas.<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>MISIÓN:</strong><br />
El propósito de &#8220;Piensa Verde – Actúa Verde&#8221; es inspirar a la comunidad Roosevelt para proteger nuestro planeta y para desarrollar y tomar acción en soluciones socialmente responsables. Queremos que los miembros nuestra comunidad tomen decisiones ecológicamente amigables en sus rutinas diarias.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">OBJETIVO 1 &#8211; Institucionalizar las iniciativas de la escuela para reducir los residuos</span></strong></p>
<p>El Equipo Verde  trabajó en las siguientes cuatro iniciativas:<br />
<strong>1. Establecer un programa de reciclaje en todo el campus</strong> &#8211; En la actualidad, existen 24 estaciones eco-bin ubicadas en todo el campus. Papel, plástico, tetrapak y la basura son eliminados en contenedores de diferentes colores. El Eco Club de la Escuela Intermedia creó señalética y los grabó en los contenedores para mostrar exactamente lo que se puede poner en cada uno. El Equipo Verde sigue trabajando con los alumnos para educarlos sobre el uso correcto de los contenedores y también ayudan a los trabajadores en lo que necesitan para ver el proceso de reciclado llegue a su finalización.</p>
<p><strong>2. Fin de la venta de agua embotellada en el campus -</strong> El Equipo Verde detuvo la  venta de agua embotellada en el campus, reduciendo de esta manera  el consumo de productos plásticos. El Equipo Verde inició  su trabajo consultando si el agua podía ser examinada para asegurarse que el colegio cumplía  con  las más estrictas normas de seguridad de Perú y de los EE.UU. y que estaba apta para el consumo. Estos resultados han llevado a la compra de un nuevo sistema de filtrado que se instalará durante las vacaciones de julio. Durante el año escolar 2010-11, una vez más el Equipo Verde tendrá como objetivo pedir a los alumnos que llenen sus botellas de agua en lugar de comprar agua embotellada.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>3. </strong><strong>Detener la venta y uso del tecnopor en el campus &#8211; </strong>Ha habido una reducción drástica en el uso del por tecnopor. El Equipo Verde seguirá trabajando con los proveedores en nuestros kioskos hasta lograr que en el FDR no se consuma  este producto.<br />
<strong>4. Establecer un sistema de fertilización ecológico &#8211; </strong>Nuestros silos se han construido y están siendo alimentados con materiales orgánicos que quedan después de la preparación de los alimentos. El Equipo Verde seguirá centrando sus esfuerzos en la iniciativa para que se utilicen una mayor cantidad de silos ecológicos y para  la producción de nuestro propio fertilizante.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">OBJETIVO 2 &#8211; Promover las prácticas sostenibles mediante la educación ambiental.</span></strong></p>
<p>El Equipo Verde trabajó en los siguientes las siguientes cuatro iniciativas:<br />
<strong>5. Crear un sitio web del Equipo Verde con información para alumnos, profesores y padres de familia –</strong></p>
<p><strong> http://blog.amersol.edu.pe/green_team/</strong><br />
Este sitio web fue presentado en la edición de Enero de 2010 de la Revista IB World, que destacó el éxito de proyectos medioambientales en el Mundial de Escuelas de IBO. Nuestra página web se ha convertido en un recurso increíble para nuestra comunidad escolar. Se actualiza diariamente con los recursos incluyendo videos que nuestros alumnos han realizado, vídeos producidos profesionalmente, enlaces a otros sitios web, lecciones guiadas para maestros, y las entradas al blog. Por favor, siga visitando nuestra página web el próximo año.</p>
<p><strong>6. Plan Días Especiales / Eventos –</strong> Los polos de algodón orgánico de &#8220;Piensa Verde &#8211; Actúa Verde&#8221;, diseñado por uno de nuestros alumnos, se vendieron  todo el año para que los alumnos y el personal pueda llevarlos en cada “Día Verde” (un viernes  al mes). El primer “Día Verde” del año incluyó un animado concierto para los alumnos de K-12 quienes utilizaron materiales reciclados para la percusión. Otras actividades del Día Verde han incluido talleres impartidos por alumnos y profesores, asambleas de la escuela media y secundaria, juegos, presentaciones y oradores invitados.</p>
<p>         <strong><br />
7. El uso de nuestras instalaciones para promover prácticas verdes -</strong> Este año, un Club de Jardinería ha creado y mantenido un jardín de vegetales y un jardín de flores, el cual crecerá para el próximo año. También se creó un jardín hipodrionico experimental que fue utilizado y establecido por los alumnos de la escuela media durante el primer semestre.</p>
<p><strong>8. Conectar los objetivos del equipo verde al plan de estudios –</strong> Nuestro plan de estudios atraviesa por temas ecológicos en numerosos ámbitos, desde la literatura a la ciencia. Muchos profesores utilizan la página web de Equipo Verde, especialmente en los Días Verdes para poner de relieve determinadas cuestiones. El año que viene, el Equipo Verde espera para calcular la huella de carbono de la escuela y trabajar para ser una escuela sin carbono.</p>
<p><strong>PLANES DEL EQUIPO VERDE PARA EL 2010-11</strong></p>
<p>El Equipo Verde seguirá reuniéndose periódicamente para trabajar en pos de nuestros objetivos e iniciativas. El primer viernes de cada mes será designado como &#8220;Green T-Shirt Day&#8221; y se permitirá que los alumnos asistan al colegio sin el uniforme, usando sus polos “Piensa Verde – Actúa Ver”. La venta de estas camisetas continuará. Además, el Equipo Verde participará activamente en la planificación de la Conferencia del Global Issues Network (GIN) prevista que se celebrará en nuestra escuela del 21 hasta 23 octubre del 2011.<strong></strong></p>
