So I am really trying as much as I can to live a little green. Now I'm only 13 years old so I can't really do so much with out my parent's help. So far I've been:
trying to turn of everything that I'm not using for electricity
recycling pop cans and papers at the school.
using those notebooks with recycled paper for school
riding my bike places
my parents are using those cloth bags for sacking up the groceries.
That's about all. We don't have actual recycling at our house but I recycle the work sheets at the school. I was talking to my parents about planting some trees at a bare area in our back yard and are thinking about it doing so. Is there more that I can do? Plus I don't get this: if cows are polluting the air from their farts, how is it bad that we're eating meat and better off being a vegetarian? I don't understand that so I would be really nice if someone could answer it!
Thanks you guys! Cheers! =]
Thanks for the answers so far!
Yup, my parents grow a garden every year as well. We use the plants to help keep some more money in our pockets and save a trip to the store. And yeah, I've already made the whole turning off the water while brushing my teeth a habit. =] Thank you for telling me how eating meat is some what bad. I totally understand now!
I myself have kind of been "advertising" for being a green person. My friends call me the "hippie" out of anyone that I am friends with. I've been telling people to recycle, plant trees, and such. I've also been kinda wearing it too! I wear a lot of shirts that have peace signs, or been good the the trees. I even have one that is black with a two trees and a bush running that says " run forest run!" with a bulldozer in the background looking like it's going to cut them down. So I've been doing my part as to spreading it around. =]
