KIDS VIEWS - on Climate Change

Kids have some very firm ideas on global warming and climate change.
Here's a selection.

When asked for ideas on reducing GHG emissions...
'We all breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Perhaps if we all hold our breath occasionally'
'Let's all buy fridges with 5 stars'
'Everyone needs to turn their heating down by 5 degrees'

'If you're hot why don't you just open a window?'

'When you cook your dinner, just cook it all in one pot.'
'Standby power is when the little red light is on the TV. Make sure there are no little red lights on when you leave the room.'
'Just do all your washing once a week. Then hang it all outside. If it rains you can just hang it straight outside.'
  'Instead of turning out lights, why doesn't everyone light candles?'
  'We can't stop global warming. The planet is just going to keep getting hotter....'
     
From our Dutch kids
Het is een leuk boek en ik weet nu veel meer over het klimaat en wat ik kan doen om te helpen.
