In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join the Environment Club. In the club, people work together to protect the environment.
No-rubbish lunches. How much do you throw after lunch? The Environment Club asks students to bring their lunches in bags that can be recycled. The students try their best to make less rubbish.
No-car days. No-car days were started by 35 cities in France on 22nd September, 1998. They were started to protect the environment. By now, more than 1,000 cities around the world have had a no-car day. In China, more and more people are taking part in the activity. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car—not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember: Walk, jump, bike or run! Use your legs! It's lots of fun!
Turn off water! Do you know that some broken toilets could waste 20 to 40 ml of water an hour? In a year, that will fill a small river! In the Environment Club, the members mend those broken toilets.
We have only one Earth. Let's work hard together to make our world cleaner and more beautiful.
