Envirosafe Solutions is keen to promote an environmentally sound approach to lifestyle, business, education and family life. We also support the dissemination and sharing of green ideas and green views that may be of service to our clients and other members of the community and general public. We also care deeply about the need to educate the younger generation on issues such as conservations, sustainable living, climate change, responsible use of fossil fuels and various energy alternatives. We believe in instilling a sense of “green values” in the younger generation.
For this reason, Envirosafe Solutions has compiled this useful overview of a few green website links for parents, educators and children. We hope they can be of use to you, your schools and your families.
