Hellen’s video qualified as an Honorable Mention in the 9th through 12th grade age bracket of the Take Care of Texas Video Contest this season.
Many Texas students worked hard to produce creative videos for the contest. The videos covered a range of topics such as tips to save energy, ways to save water, the importance of clean air and water, recycling and reducing trash, and more!
The contest runs in the fall each year. You can learn more about our annual 6th-12th grade video contest on our Video Contest webpage.
Hellen’s video illustrates the mutual relationship between us and our environment. She specifically tackles reducing our trash through simple acts like repurposing old clothes, switching to reusables in the kitchen, and composting food waste. Her message highlights that we need the environment, and that the environment needs us to take care of it.
