TOP 3 CLIMATE TIPS TO SHARE WITH YOUR FRIENDS

1. Sharing is caring!
Not everybody needs new rollerblades or uses them all the time. Co-owning is a great way to save energy in production and save money too!

2. Reusing rules!
Organise a clothes/CD/PC game swap with your friends and discover how old items of yours can get new lives with your friends. And again, it’s energy saved!

3. Meat bites back!
Livestock farming is responsible for 18 per cent of all greenhouse gas emissions. By eating less meat you’ll also save rainforests from being cut for pasture.

3. Gather a gang!
Create a climate group from your friends to discuss ways to help the climate on a daily basis!

Stopping climate change

But climate change is not a threat coming from outer space. It is people who are causing it by polluting the atmosphere with too much carbon dioxide (CO2) from burning coal, oil and gas for energy. And that is where we are in luck. If we started it ourselves, we can stop it ourselves too!

TOP 3 CLIMATE TIPS FOR HOME

1. Seize the light!
Switch off lights when you leave the room and use only energy-saving bulbs. They are 90 per cent more energy efficient than regular bulbs.

2. Save Electricity!
Unplug your hi-fi’s, PCs, TVs, mobile chargers and other electronic devices when you’re not using them. Devices on standby consume energy even after switch off.

3. Take the train!
Air traffic is the fastest growing source of CO2, so let’s stay on the ground and leave flying to the birds.

What is climate change?

It's beyond doubt that climate change is a problem unlike any that humanity has faced in the past. It affects the whole planet – all natural systems and every person living in every country on every continent.
