 Buy smartly. Remember the 4 Rs:  Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Use renewable energy such as wind and solar energy.  Making electricity this way is cleaner beacuse you are not producing greenhouses gases.

Separate unwanted waste and take it to a bring-in-site near you.  Because of climate change, rainfall is less but heavier causing floods and damaging fields.

I walk to go shopping.  I use my bike for school. I use my electric car to go to work.  Change the way you travel. Use electric cars, electric scooters, hybrid cards and your own legs!
