Cigarette stub challenge: Bad Leonfelden sets a sign of cleanliness

Von WOM

In a remarkable initiative to reduce cigarette waste, the TNMS Bad Leonfelden launched the "cigarette stub challenge". The aim of this project is to free the city of Bad Leonfelden from the unsightly garbage that is created by thrown away cigarette button. This problem is not only an aesthetic challenge, but also an environmental policy question, since cigarette filters are made of plastic and need years to break down.

The challenge is specifically against the pollution of the city center and is intended to raise awareness of the effects of cigarette consumption on the environment. TNMS students are actively involved and motivate other citizens to also participate in the campaign. This not only shows the use of the young generation for a clean environment, but also promotes the sense of community.

commitment and responsibility

By participating in the "Cigarette Stummy Challenge", the young people not only take responsibility for their surroundings, but also learn important environmental skills. The project is supported by TNMS teachers who help the students develop strategies to mobilize others and to organize effective cleaning actions.

This initiative is significant as it reflects a growing awareness of environmental issues among young people and highlights the importance of community eFFORTS in Tackling Pollution. The award for this initiative, which is awarded as part of the Upper Austria 2024 environmental award, is not only an incentive for the students, but also recognition for their creative and active commitment to a clean city.

The "cigarette-stub challenge" is a shining example of how educational institutions can contribute to improving the environment. Such programs encourage schools to play an active role in environmental and nature conservation.
