David sends a message to the world’s young environmentalists. Kids are learning more about our environment and what it needs everyday. We will probably learn more from them about what are world needs and how we can heal it. They are smarter than we give them credit for, listen to what they are saying. We believe it’s vital to involve as many young people as we can. We know they care about the Earth and their communities. We also know that given the chance, they have strong opinions and clear ideas about how to fix the problems.
Abbie Barnes, a young filmmaker from the UK, takes it upon herself to educate her community and generation on sustainable living and the importance of nature. Abbie shares in her own words what inspired her to start making films, and how she feels we must act now to protect the environment so we will all have a future.
message from the kids
The kids have spoken! “If we don’t come together and help, than we might not have a tomorrow.” We talked to kids in classrooms and camps all across America who are taking huge steps to make a difference in the health of our environment. They know what the future holds if we don’t act now to change the way we care for the Earth. Remember, we don’t inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.
Planting trees
Trees are like the lungs of the planet. They breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. Additionally, they provide habitat for birds and other wildlife. Planting trees in your neighborhood really is one of the best things you can do for the local environment and for the planet. It’s no secret that trees help the environment, but you may be surprised by all the benefits that planting trees can provide. Besides producing oxygen and removing carbon dioxide and contaminants from the air, trees have many other social, economic, and environmental benefits.
