There are things that you and your family can do at home to fight climate change - we all need to work together to save the environment.
- Every time you leave a room, switch off the light
- When you are finished watching TV, switch if off and don’t leave it on standby
- Don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth
- Dripping taps waste water – if you stop a dripping tap inform a grown up so that it can be fixed
- Turn the temperature of your central heating down by just 1 degree
- When the heating is on, keep all doors and windows closed
- Use both sides of a piece of paper before throwing it away
- Recycle paper, plastic, glass and cans
- Replace old light bulbs with energy saving ones
- Plant a tree. In its lifetime a tree will take a lot of CO2 out of the air and produce oxygen
- Join a nature organisation
