The buses’ size and design, and the drivers’ training, help them avoid accidents. Buses also do great things to decrease fuel consumption and traffic congestion.

In the US, buses use 2.3 billion gallons less fuel every year than if everyone drove their children to school.

Reducing waste may involve taking an in-depth look at the types of resources your school buys and considering ways of cutting down.

Waste has value, both within school and in wider society. Waste can be reused (think of old wellies turned into plant pots, old pallets turned into bug hotels and hundreds more examples of upcycling).

If you have a big school and the authorities tell everyone every day to recycle, then we will be so Eco-friendly!

Tell your school about free paper-saving software. You can download software that will help save paper by removing wasteful content when printing from the Web and reformatting documents to print more efficiently. Well-reviewed ones include FinePrint, PrintEco, & Printfriendly.

Ask instructors to create a blog or website. Instructors can put all assignments, lecture notes and handouts online using a blog or website to which all students have access. They can also set up a dropbox or other collection tool to which students can submit papers and homework

Submit your papers and other homework via email. If you have a laptop, bring it to class for taking notes rather than using a notebook.

Live by example. If you’re messy, your students will likely be messy, too. Keeping your classroom clean and ticking off the same steps in your own corner of the world will show students just how much a clean classroom matters. Promote yours and your students’ by practicing what you preach.

There’s more than myth behind the theory that a messy classroom equates to a messy mind; the idea is actually deeply rooted in the principles of Zen and feng shui. In essence, experts believe physical clutter may prevent mental clarity—something we all need.
