Repost from @porcupine_info!

“So you forgot how to be human. We get it. Adjusting to a new school routine ain't easy. Here are some tips to help you feel human again:

😴 Go to sleep at a DECENT time to get your REM cycles in - Stop scrolling on your phone until the sun comes out.
🥙 Pack a nutritious lunch - Need some inspiration? Click the link in our bio to find lunch ideas.
🧍‍♂️ Get dressed in real clothes or school uniform - No, not your PJs.
🤗 Be kind and considerate - Maybe not burping at 100 decibals in public.
🦷 Brush your teeth before going to school - Your mask can't hide that much morning breath.
🗣Talk to other humans - Physical distancing is important right now, but so is socializing with your friends.
🚴‍♀️Get moving - Take advantage of the sun. Walk or bike to school.
😩Mental health a little rocky? Check out the link in bio for some resources.

Donc tu as oublié comment être humain. On te comprend. S'adapter à une nouvelle routine scolaire n'est pas facile. Voici quelques conseils pour t'aider à sentir à nouveau humain :

😴 Couche-toi de bonne heure afin d'obtenir un sommeil paradoxal - Arrête de faire défiler votre téléphone jusqu'à ce que le soleil se lève.
🥙 Prépare toi un dîner nutritif - Besoin d'inspiration? Clique sur le lien dans notre bio pour trouver des idées de dîner.
🧍‍♂️ Habille-toi de façon présentable ou dans ton uniforme scolaire - Non, pas tes pyjamas.
🤭 Sois gentil et prévenant - Peut-être ne pas roter à 100 décibels en public.
🦷 Brosse tes dents avant d'aller à l'école - Ton masque ne peut pas cacher autant d'haleine matinale.
🗣 Parle à d'autres humains - La distanciation physique est importante en ce moment, mais la socialisation avec vos amis l'est aussi.
🚴‍♀️ Bouge-toi - Profite du soleil. Va à l'école à pied ou à vélo.
😩La santé mentale un peu rocailleuse ? Consulte le lien dans la bio pour quelques ressources.”

The Ontario Government is creating a new youth env

The Ontario Government is creating a new youth environment council, to provide young Ontarians in grades 9 to 12 with more opportunities to share their insights and ideas on climate change and other key environmental issues impacting the province’s future. Ontario youth in high school are encouraged to apply to be volunteer members of the council by August 4.

Members of the youth council will meet monthly from September to April to hear from expert guest speakers, discuss a range of environmental and climate change issues and provide input on potential solutions to ministry officials, including the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks.

Eligible youth can apply to be members of the consultation group by completing an application form on ontario.ca/YEC by August 4, 2021 at 11:59 pm. Candidates must currently be in grades 9 to 12 now, or as of the 2021 fall school year, and should have a passion for the environment, an understanding of key climate-related issues and solutions in their regions, and work or volunteer experience with activities related to climate change and the environment.
