Mr. Eco encourages students to be superheroes for the environment

A caped-crusader stopped by Highland Meadows Elementary School to enlist students to help save the Earth from the evils of pollution and wasteful habits.

Among Mr. Eco’s environmentally conscious rap songs was encouragement to avoid single-use water bottles with “Bottles are for Babies” and to be kind and respectful of animals as “Wildlife Warriors.” He urged students to recycle with “Recycle Robot” and deputized them to be Eco Heroes with the “Ecohero Anthem.”

His visit helped kick off Earth Month, which is 30 days of raising awareness about what individuals can do to make a positive global impact on the environment, culminating in Earth Day on April 22.

As a district, Dallas ISD continually aims to reduce waste and energy use. Learn about current programs here.
