Lets go green!
Reading English/Greek words 1
Read this article on Global Warming and match the pictures with the things you can do for the environment (1-6).
GLOBAL WARMING Global warming is a big problem, but there are many little things we can do to make a difference and reduce the greenhouse gases that pollute the atmosphere.
Many greenhouse gases come
from things we do every day. These gases trap energy in the atmosphere and make the Earth warmer.
Here are some things you can do to help:
1. Carpooling can save energy. Instead of four people driving four cars to work, they can ride together in one car. 2. Turn off the TV, the computers and the lights when you don't need them. 3. When you buy, buy cool stuff. There are some products -certain cars and stereos, for example- which don't use much energy. 4. Walk, ride your bike or take the bus. It saves energy. 5. Plant trees. They absorb carbon dioxide from they air. 6. Solar energy is energy that comes from the sun. Use solar energy to heat homes, buildings and water. adapted from http://www.epa.gov/globalwarming/kids/difference.html
