We all want to help clean up the environment and fix our planet, but it seems like such a big job!
That's why Maya, Jay, Katie and Eric have started the EZ-ONE campaign at their schools!
Every student chooses an EZ-ONE thing that she or he can do to become more environmentally friendly.
Maya's EZ-ONE thing is taking showers instead of baths to conserve both water and energy!
Eric's EZ-ONE thing is buying local. He asks his parents to buy fruits and vegetables that are grown in Ontario.
Jay's EZ-ONE thing is turning off and unplugging appliances (like TVs and computers) when he's not using them.
Katie's EZ-ONE thing is saying "no" to plastic bags. She takes a reusable cloth bag with her everywhere she goes.
Here are more EZ-ONE ideas to try!
If each of us commits to an EZ-ONE thing, then together we'll be committing to a whole lot!
So what's the EZ-ONE thing you can do to help the planet?
