A high school in Kitchener wanted to highlight our complicated love/hate relationship with single-use plastics, and they've done it in a very unique way; through an environmental cover of Joan Jett's 'I Hate Myself For Loving You.'
Teacher Sara Wahl and students Samantha Loberto, Pax Sellar Voll and Willem Hedrick hold up a "bag monster" that was used in the rock video. The community donated hundreds and hundreds of bags and bottles to help make this vision come to life.
"This project was giving people an opportunity to pause and think and reflect a little bit about that convenient item that they may be used for 10 minutes to take a drink or to eat a take out order is going to be with us on the planet for the 500 years," said Wahl.The project started before the pandemic and, with restrictions in place and students unable to attend school in-person, it was put on hold.
"Countless hours, day after day ... every day during a spare I have, I would edit for an hour and then I'd go home. Sometimes edit for like eight hours straight," said Hedrick, who plans to go university next year for digital media and marketing.
