Our school has done a good job staying green. Why don’t you try to green up your homes we have at our school? Here are a few tips for starters:
1. Recycle: buy a recycling can
2. Reduce paper: use both sides
3. Eat healthier: to stay unwrapperish*
4. Reuse plastic bottles: buy a water bottle
5. Reuse newspaper: for making fires, paper mache, wrapping gifts, and other things
6. Decrease pencils: pick up the pencils on the ground!
7. Plant gardens: like Holmes school!
8. Compost**
9. Use bird feeders: (to attract birds)
10.Don’t litter: it destroys the animal’s ecosystem
Don’t forget the Three R’s! And remember, be waste free every day, not just on Wednesdays.
*Unwrapperish means to not have more manufactured wrappers on your food than necessary.
* *Composting means to have an outside tub full of dirt, garbage (orange peels, banana peels, eggs shells…), and worms. Even though composting takes a while for results, the soil turns out VERY rich.
