While agriculture and tourism are still the main drivers of Cambodia’s economy, the industry sector, especially the garment industry, has been expanding rapidly. With this rapid industrialization and economic growth, Cambodia is expected to consume more electricity for both industrial and domestic purpose. 32.2 % of Cambodia’s population are aged 14 years and below. It’s this group of Cambodians who more likely to benefit from the economic growth of the country. It’s also they who will have to bear the consequences of environmental problems and in particular global warming should they neglect their responsibility to care for the environment. Hence it’s important to educate this group of young people on the importance of consuming electricity responsibly. It’s also easier to nurture positive habits in the young. The project team believes that children at this age are old enough to understand the threat of global warming while at the same time they are young enough to be inculcated with good habits in the young. Goal - Contribution towards the mitigation of increasing global temperature through the reduction of electricity consumption in urban households. - Rubbish collection issues are tackled through the education and the materials provided. - School materials for less fortunate children are provided. Objective(s) The program serves to fulfill the main objectives as follows: 1. Environment for energy saving: To raise the awareness of - The impact of excessive use of electricity on rising global temperature - The amount of energy needed to operate the different household electrical appliances. To encourage individuals to adopt positive habits so as to reduce electricity consumption. These habit may include but not limited to following: - Switch off electrical appliances from the main switch when not in use - Use natural lighting during the day - Use energy efficient electrical appliances such as energy saving light 2 | P a g e bulbs instead of incandescent light bulbs - If air conditioner unit is required, maintain the temperature at no lower than 25 degrees Celsius 2. Environment for cleanliness through the rubbish collection and water tape To raise awareness of and the form the habitual behavior toward - The collection of rubbish, helping to promote the fresh environment - The use of water/water tape to wash hands at all times after playing or touching any bacterial stuff 3. Educational Charity Event To contribute to the less fortunate children in the rural who have limited educational resources to support their study Agenda Appendix 1 Evaluation and Pre-assessment questionnaire will be distributed to high school students before the Impact Assessment workshop to check their level of understanding about the environment protection, especially on energy saving and rubbish collection. And the post questionnaires will be also done right after the workshop to measure their level of knowledge and how they will change their behavior after the experiments.
