Earth Rescue Team: Saving Our Planet!
What do you already know about caring for our planet?
Learning Objective
At the end of the lesson you will know how to use less fuel, save energy, and be a hero for our planet.
Welcome to the Earth Rescue Team
You are now a planet hero! Let’s learn how to keep Earth happy and healthy together.
Why Do We Need to Help the Earth?
Our planet needs us! Trees, animals and people all need clean air, fresh water and safe places to live.
What is Fuel and Why Use Less?
Fuel comes from the ground. Cars and buses need it to move, but it can make air dirty. Using less fuel helps keep the air clean.
How Can We Use Less Fuel?
Walk, bike or scooter to school and shops. It’s fun and healthy.
Use Public Transport
Walk or Cycle
Try buses or trains. If you must take a car, share rides with friends.
Saving Energy at Home
Turn off lights and plug off toys when not using. Use less energy to help Earth rest.
Water Wise!
Don’t leave taps running. Take shorter showers. Water is special, so let’s use just what we need!
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Sort rubbish at home. Put bottles and papers in recycling bins. Use both sides of paper and bring your own shopping bags.
