From when your child is young, teach them
- Don't leave the tap running.
- Don't keep the electricity (lights, computer) running longer than you absolutely have to.
- Don't buy things you do not need.
- Try to use no chemicals. If you do use products that are not environmentally friendly like shampoo, toothpaste and creams, use the bare minimum.
- Refuse to eat junk food that damages your body and damages the planet while it is being made, or when it is thrown away after use.
- Don't destroy plants, kill insects unnecessarily If you do never with poisons that has a knock-on effect that may kill far beyond what you intended.
- Don't drop litter, create waste, use disposables, throw things away if they can be recycled, and, if you are very clever you start to put pressure on adults to do more for our environment.
- Always remember that although you might think "What will this little amount hurt?", cumulatively, if everyone litters, poisons, consumes too much, does not cooperate too, we destroy ourselves.
The most important concepts to get into the heads of children is:
- Where does what we use come from?
- What damage was done to bring it to us?
- Where does it go to when we throw it away?
- What damage is done by that?
