The EC Badge rewards ECs who are actively involved in environmental activities and have been keeping environmental issues alive in their school and local community.
Aside from delivering environmental talks and presentations to their school-mates, these ECs also work closely with their teacher-mentors, or Environmental Educational Advisors (EEAs), to spearhead environmental initiatives for their school.
This is an on-going effort and by no means, a smooth-sailing one, on top of an already challenging academic curriculum. Hence, to reward the efforts and outcomes of these deserving ECs and inspire them to new and better achievements, NEA launches the 'Environment Champions Badge'.
The highest level of recognition is for an EC whose concern for the environment takes him beyond the confines of the school and seeks to inspire the larger community to assume personal responsibility for the environment. He would be awarded a gold badge.
Here are a sampleof the activities that these YEGs have done in 2008 to earn the Gold badges.
