For kids to keep green, it's reeeeally easy!  And it's great that you want to go green, because you are helping the environment!

-Well, reduce, reuse, recycle! You know, don't buy everything in little individual packages. Then reuse your clothes, or donate them when they don't fit anymore. And anything you can reuse, you recycle if you can. And throwing it out should be the last thing you do,

-Start a compost bin. This is where your banana peels or orange slices would go. Here's a good website for that:    http://www.dirtyhandsgardencenter.com/co...

-Kids can also remember to turn off the lights when they leave a room. Or if you just open your windows, and let natural sun come through, you don't need to turn on the lights.

-Also, go and play outside instead of just sitting and watching t.v., because that wasate's energy!

-But if you like to sit on the computer playing video games, here are some good websites to check out to help the environment. Just click some buttons and help the environment:

-You can also encourage your school to start a recycling program and stuff. You can make a club that would bring all the recycling from class rooms out to the big bins and whatnot.

-Also tell your family and friends to "go green"

-Encourage your parents to buy organic foods. They're better for you, and are better for the environment!

-When buying new school clothes, or new summer clothes, by organic clothing. Or buy used clothing, so that no trees or anything is being ruined by your buying of the clothes.

-If you bring water to school everyday, obt for a reusable one. You'll be using less plastic, and you can even get a really cool bottle! It'll make it fun.

-If you're ever cold, don't turn on the heat. Just get a blanket and put a coat on, no energy wasted there.

And just think about stuff before you do it! Think about your soda can and remember to recycle it! And think "Do I really need that toy? I already have a lot" ANd good luck!
