WHAT CAN AN ECO HERO KID DO?

We could urge our friends and families not to use our cars so much.  We could walk, ride a bike, carpool, etc.

We could talk our families into driving cars that don’t use so much gas and don’t put so much pollution into the air. Buy an electric car! 

We could WRITE A LETTER to our government asking them to make sure the car companies still keep their pollution emissions low.  We don’t care if it costs a little more!  This is our health we are talking about.  Write a letter!  That’s five letters.  Just think if they each got hundreds of letters from children telling them how they felt about air pollution!

Say anything you want to say. But do a little research so you know what you are talking about. That’s very impressive to adults. Use your own words. Tell them your concerns.  And draw a picture that they can put on their wall.  Make sure to look at Module #2 for more help on how to write and send a letter.
