Brunswick School Reports
Lizzy DeVan at The Brunswick School in Greenwich, CT emailed today with their results. The 1st to 4th grade boys (it’s an all-boys school) canceled 677 catalogs! The CCC was organized by student members of Bruswick’s “Green Bruins” club (Charlie Burdett, Sean Redahan, Jackson Brymer, Max Bergstein, Jared Wofson) with help from Ms. DeVan. They also made a movie about it that I can’t wait to see. 3rd grader Max Bergstein wrote the fantastic blog post below. Thanks Max!! Well said!!
“The experience of canceling catalogs was one I’m glad I had. Canceling catalogs was a fun way to save our trees and the animals who live in them. I thought canceling catalogs would be difficult and the people who answered the phone wouldn’t be friendly. Actually, the people I spoke with were very friendly and the process of canceling was quick and easy. I realized that if everyone spent a few minutes on the phone asking to be removed from mailing lists they don’t want to be on, we would save millions of pounds of paper. Trees would not be cut down and they could keep on living and soaking up carbon dioxide, which cleans our air and helps us all breathe better.”
