Thanks so much to Celina Caesar-Chavannes and her team for giving Operation EcoPen a try! We love her ecofriendly initiatives such as #CommunityCleanup with #TeamCelina and recycling milk bags into mats with Whitby Federal Youth Council. Maybe Catherine McKenna #TeamMcKenna would like to try Operation EcoPen, too, since the federal government plans to reduce plastic waste https://www.cbc.ca/…/environment-g7-oceans-plastic-waste-ca…

The intergovernmental panel on climate change has issued a dire warning to our generation. https://www.nytimes.com/…/cli…/ipcc-climate-report-2040.html. Everywhere we look around, our parents our scurrying around doing everything they can to ensure us a better future whether it's taking us activities or helping us with our homework. And the greatest irony is that if nothing changes, we will be left with a world where none of that matters. Perhaps it is time that our generation needs to stand up and fend for ourselves.
