Earlier this year Eurodimensions held an event for teachers related to STEM promoting also the PLASTEAM project, through a 2-day event. PLASTEAM and specifically the STEAM-Box was presented by Marika Huber with a detailed PPT and various videos that highlighted the impact plastic has on the environment, green washing and the forceful impact that daily items (such as clothing) have on our environment.
The teachers were stunned with some specific aspects related to green washing and the origins of microbeads. The following day, teachers were introduced to the Technology and the Environment with hands on activities by Kevin Spiteri, an Education Consultant for Further and Higher Education.
