This month, the Sandgate District State High School Journalist Club asked the members of the school’s Environmental Committee what they enjoy about being part of the club, and what we can do to help the environment. 

Helping The Environment Helps Yourself

According to the members of the Environmental Committee, helping the environment gives people the feeling of “pride, fulfillment, feeling of belonging and connection, contribution, feel happier, breath better”. 

There are countless strategies that we can do to help the environment, from exchanging containers for change, to collecting materials such as paper, recycling, worm farms, native stingless bee farms, and much more.
