WESTMINSTER It might be difficult to find someone more dedicated to protecting the environment than AudriannaMalloy.
Fourth-grader at Westminster Elementary School is no stranger to speaking out, even though she is only four years old. She has also taken action to support her words by organizing an Earth Day cleanup for her classmates on May 2.
The environment needs to be improved. Audrianna stated that it is important to not only do my part, but also encourage my friends.
The 10-year-old isn’t stopping at the cleanup. RecycleWorks Inc., Mass. is where she is following her passion for climate change and environmental protection. The EPA and Westminster DPW have created a timeline and framework for starting a composting program within their school district.
It has been exciting and fun. Audrianna says it has been a great way to get outside and help the planet. It has been fascinating to learn about new ways of recycling and reducing food waste. I did not know Massachusetts had so many programs to address this issue.
Audrianna said that she was surprised that schools aren’t composting and giving away the education material.

Also:Local view: Let’s make sure that we don’t lose anything for someone else.
She stated that it would be beneficial for the town’s food waste management to be more efficient. This will make our generation less of a problem in the future, especially for those who stay in the area.
Mother Brianne Malloy spoke with great pride about her daughters’ passion and dedication.
She is so proud of me. Brianne explained that she has been asking people to pick up their trash since childhood. She is not shy about voicing her opinion on protecting her Earth.
Brianne said that she is a kind, compassionate child and it is in her future. She knew she wanted help the community and started Project Green, which she dubbed after she noticed that there was no recycling bin at the cafeteria. From there, it spiralled. She began to wonder about how much waste is being generated in the schools, just after lunch.
Audriannas Project Green’s next step is to meet with officials next month and apply state and federal grants for food waste management projects such as her proposed composting programme.
Audrianna presents her proposal in light of Massachusetts’ recent reductions in disposal regulations for commercial food waste, which were reduced from one ton per Week to one ton per day effective Nov. 1, Brianne stated.
Brianne stated that Massachusetts offers an RDP grant (Recycling Dividends Program). This will be our first application. This is a shocking fact. We are excited to see what happens.
