• Eco Office

    Roots & Shoots started Eco-office in 2006, providing a new method of environmental education as well as helping offices to find some effective and easy ways to reduce waste and lower their carbon footprint.

  • About The Eco School Audit Program

    The Eco School Audit Program was created by Shanghai Roots & Shoots in 2008 for students to audit their own campuses and help their schools become greener. Through the Eco School Program, student groups can evaluate their schools’ environmental practices and carbon footprint and raise the environmental awareness of their schoolmates and school’s administration. The students are also encouraged to create and manage an action plan, including educational campaigns to augment their program.

    How to participate for schools:

    We’ve prepared an easy-to-implement Eco School Tool Kit for schools that want to conduct audits on their campuses. School advisors or team leaders may use this tool kit as a reference. Please send an email to info@srschina.org.cn to receive the tool kit.
