for the

2. What was the
presentation about?
 We decided to work on the food
waste and aware consumption
practices subject. Our speaker
also told us more about where
she works.

3. How did we organise us?
 At the beginning, we were
a little desorganised. But
as time went on, we
started to organise our
ideas and we reunited to
discuss our individual
tasks. Following our Maths
teacher advice, we invited
a professional who works
directly with the subject
we were working on.

4. Who was there?
 We invited Carla
Caldeira, who works at
the Joint Research Center.
Her work is based on food
waste and aware
consumption practices.
This lecture was given to
10th and 11th grade
classes. It is very
important to discuss this
subject, because we are
the future of this planet
and we also need to know
how to solve this problem.

5. Our wasted food
 Our speaker talked
mainly about “Food
waste and aware
consumption
practices”. She has
also taught us more
about the European
Union and what is done
there to reduce food
waste and raise the
awareness of our people
about all these
subjects.

6. What can we do?
 Our guest gave us some
advices and explained us
how we could get our
school better.
 Composting;
 Understanding how much
food waste exists in our
school;
 Creating a vegetarian diet.

7. A short video
 This is a short video with our professional
introduction!

8. A short message to
everyone
 We decided to work on this subject because this is our
biggest problem today. We see that on the news, on
the streets, everywhere. We are destroying our planet,
the only one we have, and if we don’t do nothing, we
will completely destroy it and there won’t be any
solution. We are running out of time.
