Background

Each invididual does not choose in which country to be born, but we were all born with the same opportunities, and how we respect nature depends only on us. Through this project we wanted to teach our students that we can achieve this only if we have self-knowledge and a tendency to experiment - you need to know who you are, what you are good at, what your values are, what are your powers on nature, on our common earth. 2019 and 2020 were among the warmest years ever recorded and carbon dioxide levels and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere continue increasing despite Climate changes due to pollution are affecting every country on every continent. They are disrupting national economies and affecting people's lives. Although the big powers of the world meet to take decisions in order to lower greenhouse gas emissions, their resolutions are far from being realized now and are only temporary. Climate changes are not on pause. Through this project, we made our students take the first step not only towards their own clean future, but also towards the well-being of the community.
