Calling all youth… the future is yours, but what kind of future are you walking into?
If you are environmentally minded and feel you would like to make a difference in a positive way regarding our environment… your chance may just have popped up… :)
Durham region is accepting submissions from youth who are interested in sitting on the Durham Environmental Advisory Committee.
Who can apply? Membership is open to all Grade 11 and 12 students who have an interest in environmental issues.
What is the Durham Environmental Advisory Committee and what does it do?
It’s a 17 member volunteer advisory committee. The task before the members is to provide advice to the Region regarding environmental planning. The members are also responsible for providing environmental awareness and out reach activities.
If you are up to this it’s expected that you attend an evening meeting once a month in Whitby.
If this sounds cool to you, don’t be shy… here’s what you need to do..
Submit a letter of interest as well as a letter of reference from your school along with a letter of support from your parents or guardian.
You have until October 12 2102 to submit your letters, but it’s best to get them submitted while you are thinking about it… :)
Submissions can be emailed to: deac@durham.ca
