We know a lot about Planet Earth. Technology helps us learn more everyday. Did you know that there are an estimated 30 million different living things on the Earth? If we all do a little, our Planet can be a happy, healthy place for all living creatures.
Today we are facing several challenges, including: water pollution & air pollution (caused by the burning of fossil fuels), global warming (the planet warming up, increasing temperatures) which is causing the polar icecaps to melt.
Maybe you are wondering what you can do? You've already started to help, just by learning about the challenges we face. There are also things you can do everyday!
Try these few things and join your friends, family, Skipper Souly and the Soulmates in making a difference!
1. Turning off the water while you are brushing your teeth.
2. Take a bus or bike to school.
