Look what my daughter brought from school yesterday! I’m very proud of her. She chose this book by herself to read at home – as she said “because I love the world and nature”.
I think my constant nagging and explaining why plastic, being wasteful etc is not good for our planet, has payed off 😊😊
If I could choose to inspire one person it would be her as she is the future generation.
I’m also glad that they touch climate justice subject in schools, as I think it’s really important to educate children on this subject as early as possible to create good habits not bad one.
Getting back to the book it has 10 simple points that anyone can do to help:
– switch off the light when not using
– turn the tap off when brushing your teeth
– feed the birds in winter
– switch TV on the wall when not in use, as it’s still using power when on standby
– grow some seeds/ plants as they clean the air
– walk to school or try to use your car less to create less air pollution
– pick the litter and put it in the bin
– help to sort the recycling
– use both sides of paper when drawing
– reuse boxes etc to make toys – it’s good to reuse things before putting them into recycling.

Hi Marzena, How wonderful! I think you have inspired her a lot! As a parent it does feel important to inspire our children and give them a sense that they can make changes in the world. I find that it can be a little bit of a balancing act to educate, but not paint too much of scary picture. I think having a sense that they have the power to change things, can help to overcome this. Here is a list we contributed to at cCHANGE based on the Three Spheres of Transformation: https://climate-creativity.com/blog/ten-meaningful-ways/. It tries to bring together practical, systemic, cultural and personal actions. Thanks for the wonderful post! warm wishes, Leonie Respond
