The document describes a study conducted by students at a Greek elementary school to measure and reduce water consumption. Over three weeks, they recorded the water meter readings each morning and noon. They found that initial daily usage was about 1 cubic meter. Then they placed fire bricks in the toilet tanks, which reduced flushing volume. This lowered daily usage to 0.8 cubic meters, saving 0.2 cubic meters per day or 2 cubic meters per week. The students concluded that using a fire brick is an effective way to reduce water consumption and help the environment.
The document discusses the actions students took during the Comenius programme in March 2014, including creating recycle bins for plastic and paper, examining paper usage during lessons, making a mind map about recycling, expressing what recycling means and why it's important, following the reduce-reuse-recycle motto, and crafting spring vases from plastic bottles, carnival masks from paper plates decorated with second hand pearls, and hand made hats.
