Global warming is a common problem all over the world. Despite all the international treaties and efforts to decrease CO2 emission, it increased by %2.7 in 2018 in comparison with 2017 because of global warming. According to 2018 CO2 emission results, there are countries whose emission is more than 1 billion tons and have the highest emission rates in the world. Total CO2 emission of them constitutes more than half of the global CO2 emission with a rate of %54.2.When the amount of CO2 emission created by EU countries is added, it becomes 24.5 GtCO2, that is, %63.1 of global CO2 emission. In the light of this data and our county’s emission rate, we decided to carry out a project which will be based on a holistic approach to fight against global warming via recycling. All the partner schools will raise awareness about saving natural resources and recycling in accordance with Waste Management Philosophy, providing assistance to this project and accordingly help investing in the future and economy.We became partners with schools which have similar concerns about global warming. Each partner is capable of being a strategic partner who can work in harmony with other partners during the project and carry out activities to assist its sustainability. Also, all the partner schools have sufficient amount of responsibility, willingness, enthusiasm, and experience to conduct learning /teaching activities to raise awareness. Target population of the project consists of teachers, students, families, and local communities of six partner institutions from Turkey, Italy, Greece, Romania, Spain and France. Each partner school will participate in the activities with 4 students and 2 teachers. The project has three stages:Be Aware, Take Action, and Expand.Each activity in the project will be organised based on these three stages.Learning-Teaching-Training Activities•Toy making with recycled materials•Observing nature to raise awareness about global warming•Be aware-Take Action–Expand activities addressing global warming•Producing food with no waste•Saving energy with “Waste Observers” activity•Historical Journey of Waste Methodology of learning-teaching-training activities Project team of each partner school will make observations in other partner countries’ educational environments on the purpose of comparison. Each county will be able to determine their own implementations’ positive and negative situations by on-site observations and experiences of the relevant implementations. The teachers and students that are in the project team will carry out observations and experiences in their own countries and on drawing attention to the problem regarding our world and on making preventive activities, the studies of common action will be done. About this project; -Educational Activities(Workshops, experiments, observations, visits, etc.) will be organized to create awareness.The importance of recycling will be expressed under these topics; •Protection of the natural sources,•Saving energy, •Enabling trash process by reducing the amount of the waste,•Helping us invest the future and the economy via recyclingGlobal warming is not only our problem but also other countries’.We, with our partners, want to create a strong effect by leaving this consciousness to the next generation by awakening all together to realize the world’s dream of vivacious seas, lands, unlimited and clean energy.As individuals who learn from the experiences and becoming more conscious to the constantly increasing global problems regarding the whole world, we think that the more we expand the influence area, the more we increase the sustainability of the project.In the background via our project;The desired goal will be achieved by respecting cultures and tolerance, intercultural learning, team work, noticing how important the personal effort is and the development of language and ICT skills.Results and Long Term Effects; •It’ll contribute to raise awareness among youth by becoming conscious while observing the effects of the global warming.•It will create awareness about investing the future and the economy by recycling, decreasing the amount of the waste, energy saving and the protection of natural resources.•Recycling materials that accelerate global warming will be known.•Encouraging the environmental conscious and care will be ensured.•Activities will be determined with the local institutions providing reach to the larger masses.•By learning, teaching and educational activities that are done according to the proper schedules to achieve goals, the final beneficiaries will be affected,too.•Each partner will make a project corner.•Online magazine will be published about the results of the global warming and the most recycled wastes in partner countries.•Photograph exhibition and video display about the activities of the project will be done.•The impact area will be spread as our project will be run on eTwinning,too.
