CHANGE
Human habits and actions are having a negative impact on our environment. But it’s not too late to reverse the damage, and young people are leading the way to raise awareness about changes we need to make. We only get one green Earth, so let’s commit to keeping it that way!
Launch a ???? Go Green campaign in your school or community and make pledges to live more sustainably. Encourage your family members, friends and community to get involved and create an even bigger impact. Then, watch how everyday actions can turn into extraordinary impacts!
Ways to Take Action
At School
- Challenge your peers to commit to a personal sustainability pledge, like packing five no-waste lunches or reducing showers from ten to five minutes.
- Become a sustainable school! Replace plastic water bottles with reusable bottles, recycle paper and turn off the lights when they’re not needed.
At School
- Walk, cycle or scoot your way to school! Commit to a car-free school run to reduce carbon emissions in the environment.
- Cook vegetarian meals with your family two or three times a week to reduce your meat consumption.
As a Community
- Time for a community cleanup! Organise a communitywide litter pick around your local area.
- Write to local retailers to encourage them to use recyclable packaging for their products.
