It's a time we set aside to think about how we need to protect our environment so that the Earth stays clean and nice for everyone.
Would you like to make some dirt of your own?
This dirt isn't really dirt—it's a yummy treat that sort of looks like dirt!
Dirt Dessert
Ingredients: 20 oz crushed chocolate cookie's 12 oz whipped topping, thawed 8 oz reuced-fat cream cheese 4 oz box instant vanilla pudding 3 1/2 cups skim milk 1 cup powdered sugar 1/4 cup butter
Directions: Cream butter, cream cheese, sugar all together- set aside.
Help Save Water! * Don't keep the faucet on when you brush your teeth. * Leaving the water running just 3 minutes can use up to 1 quart of drinking water? * Leaky or improperly turned-off faucets can use up even more! * You can help just by checking to make sure the faucet is completely turned off each time you use it. * If it still drips, tell your parents so they can fix it.
Don't throw it all away: Never throw things away unless you use a trash container If you see trash on the street-pick it up and throw it in a trash barrel. Set a good example for your friends. Remind your friends that every LITTER BIT HURTS. Organize a clean up-day near your school with classmates. The next time something is broken try to repair it instead of replacing it. When you no longer need a toy or clothing, give it away to someone who can use it. Have a yard sale with your family or friends. Use cloth napkins instead of paper napkins. Use cloth towels instead of paper towels. Buy recycled paper products whenever possible. Use paper instead of plastic. Make a cloth lunchbox, or use a store-bought one to replace paper bags.
