simple things that everyone can do to help stop global warming!

There are some very simple things that everyone can do to help stop global warming:
• Turn off the lights when you leave a room. Use fluorescent bulbs in your room.

• Turn off your computer or the TV when you’re not using it. Unplug chargers when not in use.

• Wait until you have a lot of clothes to wash before using the washing machine. Don’t use the machine for one item just because it’s your favorite shirt.

• Take shorter showers. Heating water uses energy.

• Close the blinds on a hot day if the sun is shining in. Dress lightly instead of turning up the air conditioning. Or use a fan.

• Dress warmly when it’s cold, instead of turning up the heat.

• Offer to help your parents keep the air filters on your AC and furnace clean.

• Walk short distances instead of asking for a ride in a car.

• Plant a tree.

• Learn more about global warming so you can talk to people about it
