EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1990, we see the enthusiasm and dedication of Batteyford First School pupil Andrew Tennett as he embraces the concept of going green. Alongside thirty-five other students, Andrew participated in Sainsbury's Green Consumer Day, a remarkable initiative aimed at showcasing how large supermarkets are actively working towards protecting our environment. During this educational event, these young minds delved into various aspects of sustainability such as green products, packaging practices, and recycling methods. It is truly inspiring to witness their genuine interest in understanding the impact of consumerism on our planet. One particularly commendable aspect highlighted in this photograph is Sainsbury's commitment to giving back. The profits generated from their reusable carrier bags will be donated to the World Wide Fund for Nature—a noble gesture that demonstrates their dedication to preserving nature's wonders. This snapshot not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder that even small actions can make a significant difference when it comes to safeguarding our environment. These children embody hope for a brighter future where conscious choices become second nature and sustainable practices are embraced by all. As we reflect on this image today, it reminds us of the importance of instilling environmental awareness within younger generations—an essential step towards creating a greener world for all.
