Top 5 ways to be Green:
1.Recycle your clothes-Take them to a charity shop or swap them with your friends but don't throw them out.

2.Don't take the car-If you live too far away to walk ot school take public transport or organise a carpool with your friends.

3.Start a compost-Put old leaves, newspaper and dirt in here and you can put it on your garden like fertiliser.

4.Worm farm-Create a worm farm to eat scraps of fruit and veggies that your not going to eat.

5.No junk mail- Put a sign on your letter box saying no junk mail to save paper.


This week's alternative enegy source:
There's many different ways to save power are wind power, solar power, geothermal power and hydro power are a few of the many.
Hydropower:
Hydropower uses movign water, either from rivers or dams to create energy. A hydroelectric dam works by holding back water from a wall. The water is released through a pipe and pushed against blades in a turbine, causing them to turn. The turbine spins a generator amd makes electricity.

I hope this has gotten you to think about the environment more.
