SPIRITUALITY AWARDS<br />
Youth who do not belong to an organized faith group can instead pursue the Spirituality<br />
badge. Spirituality makes use of religious ideas, methods, rituals and practices, but it<br />
is not itself a formal practice. Spirituality is a way of life, a form of consciousness, a<br />
transparent awareness that is receptive to the presence of the sacredness in all things.<br />
Requirements are available at Scouts.ca.<br />

World Scout<br />
Environment Award<br />
The World Scout Environment Award badge shows Antarctica—the only collectively<br />
managed continent in the world and one of the most at risk from climate change—<br />
at its centre. The other landforms create a “world” image—not showing any one<br />
particular continent or country, as Scouts are encouraged to look beyond their own<br />
borders and think of the world. The colours of blue, green and white are commonly<br />
associated with nature; the purple of World Scouting is blended with these. The sun is<br />
reflected in the water.<br />
The World Scout Environment Award is an international award, which means that<br />
Scouts in other countries are also working to earn it, even though they may be working<br />
on slightly different requirements. All Scouts around the world who have achieved the<br />
badge will wear it on the uniform. Requirements are available at Scouts.ca.<br />
