Barnet (Parliament Politics Magazine) - Barnet educator Jessica Robinson was celebrated last month after being shortlisted for an eco award, highlighting her contribution to education. The London Eco Champion Awards 2025 shortlisted Jessica Robinson, an education lead for the environmental charity EcoJudaism, for her efforts to educate abecedarian academy scholars about biodiversity loss and the climate issue, particularly from the perspective of Jewish identity and training. At the awards form, which was organized by thenon-profit London Clean Air Initiative, which empowers, educates, and engages London's communities to take collaborative action for sustainability and clean air. A variety of" eco titleholders," from youthful children to grown-ups and associations that go over and over to guard the terrain, were recognized on the form on Monday, November 24. This year was a significant improvement for the awards, with a record amount of nominations. The night's overarching theme was honoring the great deeds done by regular individuals who care. In her introductory remarks, Octopus Energy's partnerships manager, Sophia Kesteven, emphasized that "small changes can lead to big impact" and that "every action builds momentum and every voice brings another." Jessica's efforts to improve environmental education in Jewish faith schools earned her a spot on the London Eco Champion shortlist for the Local Leaders category. She said: “We’re motivated at EcoJudaism by a concern that the Jewish community doesn’t take enough action on the climate and biodiversity crisis” They participated in a river clean-up for Mitzvah the day before the award presentation, and Jessica stated that her manager, Naomi, was not present because she was attending the COP climate conference in Brazil. The work at EcoJudaism is uniting regardless of which Jewish community people belong to, Jessica says: “We’re all from very different denominations but we are united by the drive to take urgent action on the very, very pressing climate crisis and the horrific loss of biodiversity. It brings people together because they’re working for a common cause. In Judaism, there’s a big history of fighting for social justice and as we know climate change is an issue of social justice.” The next training is scheduled for December 9th, however there are two other days available: January 26th and May 13th. "We provide them with a Kosher breakfast, and they only need to attend one session, which is three hours in the morning." The training is related to the Department of Education's requirement that every educational setting have a sustainability lead and a climate action plan. In order to carry out the plan, EcoJudaism is also collaborating closely with Barnet Council. The course's global aspirations may contribute to EcoJudaism's future, as it already provides advocacy on a global scale and maintains connections with organizations abroad. What initiatives did Jessica Robinson run in environmental education? Leading a trans- media design called" Resilience Birthright" that leverages colorful media formats similar as graphic novels, music vids, and pictures to inspire artistic and social change addressing climate change, pollution, zero waste, and sustainability.
