Fremont Middle School Academy of Environmental Science & Innovative Design

OPP Summit Final Project Symposium and Celebration 

Some very lucky students and teachers  got to join in a celebration at the Monterey Bay Aquarium as part of the Ocean Plastic Pollution Summit.  Those invited had to take  part in a student-led action project that reduces single-use plastic consumption.  Fremont's project  led by Mr. Koch and Mr. Lopez, collected all of the plastic bottle trash every week, donated the proceeds, counted how many bottles are collected each week, and used this information towards getting hydration stations around campus. We are planning for 2 water stations so far and the school campus is so much cleaner as a result! 

The group got to have a tour of the Aquarium, listened to a speaker about plastics pollution,

 and  shared Fremont's project.  

The smiles say it all------- A great time was had by everyone!!!!!
