Earth Day Activities
These are some of the things you can do to help the environment:
1-When brushing your teeth, don't let the water run.
2-Shut all the faucets tightly not to waste water.
3-Turn off the lights, computer, television, and radio, when leaving a room to save energy.
4-Always recycle paper and plastic.
5-Try to use a bike or walk instead of riding a car.
6-Don't buy a toy with too much packaging. This doesn't make a toy fun. It only harms the environment.
7-Ask the school officials to serve cafeteria food in reusable dishes.
8-When you go grocery shopping, don't use plastic or paper bag. Instead, bring along a cloth bag.
9-Write to your elected officials asking them to support the energy source that's good for the earth like solar or wind energy.
10-Join an environmentalist group so you can work with other kids to protect the earth.
