Taking Action, Making a Difference

Through these lesson ideas, students can gain an understanding of the impact of greenhouse gases on the environment. With this knowledge, they will create an action plan of conservation behaviors to help them connect their choices with reducing greenhouse gases and reducing harm on the environment.

See how these simple changes can make a big difference collectively when we all work together to conserve our energy resources.

Join us in raising awareness and reduce idling in your own community at the same time. With just a few small steps, you can reduce the amount of carbon being released into the atmosphere. Over time, the action will become habit. Create a movement! Ask others to join you to protect polar bears and reduce global warming.

Please join the Power Down Challenge for polar bears by reducing phantom power from electronic devices. You can either unplug them when not in use or switch to smart power strips that turn them off for you. Find ways to power down at your house, school, or office and make a difference by reducing power consumption!

Please join us in taking the Thermostat Challenge by adjusting your personal or your company’s thermostat up or down by at least two degrees, depending on the season, to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Then, adjust it even more at night.
