Save energy and water! ◇ Before leaving home, make sure to turn off the electricity. Take great effort to develop wind power and so on. ◇ If you can, try bicycling, walking, or using public transportation to get out instead of using the car. ◇Don't let water run while brushing your teeth and take short showers of four minutes or less. | Be a pioneer! ◇ Share your knowledge with others and help them become eco-heroes too. It takes lots of people working together to make changes happen. So share, share, share. ◇ Volunteer with more friends. Write to some companies to stop them working together with people who are harmful to the forest. |
Reduce, reuse, and recycle! ◇ Before you throw something away, stop and think about what else it could be used for. ◇ If you don't want to keep some things, try to find out who else needs them. Our goal is to keep usable things out of landfills (堆填区). | Be friendly to wildlife! ◇ Make your garden wildlife-friendly. You could build a bee hotel, provide some food, or even create a pool. ◇ If you own a cat that goes outdoors, put a bell around its neck so that little wildlife can hear it coming and run away quickly. |
