This week we’re highlighting the work of Ella Galaski-Rossen helping improve our eating habits.Hi, my name is Ella Galaski-Rossen! I’m 11 years old and live in Ajax, Ont.
I started my climate activism journey when I was 5 years old by helping organize shoreline and community cleanups, and am now the co-founder of the Cleanup Kids, a non-profit dedicated to protecting the planet. My newest project revolves around our eating habits, and I want to share this information with kids in my community so they can make better food choices.
This is possible because I’m a recipient of Earth’s Own Plant Project - a program that provides funding and support to those working to fight climate change by sparking a shift to plant-based eating. With their support, I will create and distribute more than 100 indoor garden boxes to schools across the GTA, which will include information on how to grow your own fruits and vegetables and the positive impact eating plants has on the planet.
The biggest thing I’ve learned is that individuals can really make a difference! Choosing to eat more plants can drastically reduce CO2 emissions, use less water and less land.Do you know an engaged individual?
