Thinking green
|
Conscious of our environmental impact, sustainability is a priority in PAC decision making.

Working with teachers and the school, we encourage students to be environmentally conscious around the school and at home.

Waste-free lunches
|
Reduce, reuse, and recycle
The Waste-free Lunch Challenge is a Recycling BC initiative and connects directly to the curriculum. |
Scary and true
Each student produces an average of 30kg (or 66lbs) of waste each year. With around 450 students, Capilano therefore creates around 13 tonnes of garbage each year. |
Accept the challenge
Pack lunches with reusable containers, cutlery, and cloth napkins. Avoid plastic bags, prepackaged foods, juice boxes, paper napkins and plastic utensils. |
