Tipperary second level students are being asked to consider the global consequences of local everyday actions.
It’s all part of The Story of Your Stuff competition being launched by the Environmental Protection Agency
The EPA is asking students to research the life cycle and environmental impact of an everyday item – such as their toothbrush – or everyday activity – such as eating their lunch, and to present their findings in a creative way.
The students have a chance of winning €500 for themselves and €500 for their school.
There is also a special ‘climate topic prize’ as well as a prize for the best Irish language entry.
Competition guidelines and tips are available at www.thestoryofyourstuff.ie.
The deadline for entries is Monday, 7th March 2022.
