Climate change: What can we do?
By Eliana, Naomi S & Salome
Climate change started because of all the extra gasses from cars, factories, and other things humans use every day. Climate change is having a big impact on the environment.
Now, scientists are try- ing to find ways to help our planet cool down and stay healthy.
We surveyed Stage 3 students to find out how they feel about climate change. A whopping 76% said that they are worried about our planet’s future.
Here are some things students can do:
- Convince your parents to put solar panels on your roof.
- Walk to school. Donate used clothes and toys.Compost leftover food. Write a letter to your local Member of Parliament about what they are doing to prevent climate change
- Buy local food.
- Grow your own vegetables to reduce food miles.
- Encourage your parents to use the car less.
- Plant some greens in your garden.
