Planting trees is fun and a great way
to reduce greenhouse gases. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, a
greenhouse gas, from the air.
Recycle cans, bottles, plastic bags,
and newspapers. When you recycle, you send less trash to the
landfill and you help save natural resources, like trees, oil,
and elements such as aluminum.
- You can save energy by
sometimes taking the bus, riding a bike, or walking. |
