with kids at a local school, mentor your talents.

do what ever makes people smile

Answer 4

Sure you can!  You can volunteer at a local park or help with a garden. If you live on the east coast US, you can participate in beach sweeps.  You can make good personal choices such as a vegetarian diet (make sure you talk to a doctor or nutritionist first).  Also the Fair Trade movement is pretty cool. Recycling and just doing without all the latest and greatest stuff is very helpful.  See this way cool website and share it with your friends.  www.thestoryofstuff.com

Answer 5

It's easy to feel helpless, but everyone can do their bit, whatever their age.

* Think about what  you consume - both in terms of food and products such as clothes, make up, gadgets etc.:

- Only buy things you really need

- Eat as little meat as possible and encourage your parents to buy locally produced, seasonal food

- Avoid ready-meals and over packaged food and buy instead unprocessed products. Again, encourage whoever does the food shopping to do so - and offer to help with the cooking!

- Buy second-hand clothes and other products whenever you can.

- For birthdays and Christmas, ask friends and family to make a donation to a non-profit organisation instead of buying you a present - or ask them to buy something from a 'wish list' to make sure you get something you really need and want

- Buy locally made products or fair trade.

- Re-use and recycle as much as you can to cut down on waste.

- Use a group such as Freecycle to give new homes to things you no longer need.

* Volunteer with an environmental group

- Some groups have age limits, but it's certainly worth checking out your local Friends of the Earth group and similar organisations to see if you can help.

- Become a member of an organisation that is working with important causes.

Hope that helps - don't lose hope! :-)

Answer 6

Best thing you can do is not reproduce - just don't have kids. Environmental degradation and unprecedented population numbers is not some amazing, irrelevant coincidence. Reducing your own resource consumption can help too but it's nothing compared to the leap you can make by not creating more consumers.

Answer 7

That's very nice but the world as we know it is beyond help!

Answer 8

1. Turn off the light when you leave a room

2. Don't leave the water running when you brush your teeth

3. Buy eco-friendly products like organic and sustainably grown products

4. Avoid using air fresheners, they contain hormone mimics that can mess with your own hormones

5. Plant a tree or two
