STOP THE
POLLUTION!

April 22 is Earth Day. Every year, millions of

people from 200 countries celebrate Earth Day
to teach people to protect the planet and its natural resources.
Here’s what you can do to help.

ORIGIN
The idea for the first Earth Day came from Senator Gaylord Nelson, an American politician. In 1970,
pollution in the USA was very bad: about
60% of lakes and rivers were polluted.
Senator Nelson told Americans to protest and over 20 million people joined
demonstrations around the country.

In 1990, 20 years after the first Earth Day, environmental leaders from other countries asked to join the
movement. That year, 200 million people from 141 countries celebrated Earth Day.
In 2000, 500 million people from 184 countries participated.

YOU CAN HELP THE PLANET

The planet has many problems, like air pollution, deforestation and water pollution.
GO GREEN!
GOING GREEN means thinking and caring about the environment.
The three R’s of going green are: REUSE, RECYCLE, and REDUCE.

+ REUSE we should repair things instead of throwing them away.

+ RECYCLE In the UK, people throw away seven billion drink cans a year.

+ REDUCE Carbon dioxide (CO2) is essential for the photosynthesis of

plants, therefore for life on Earth. Its origin is mainly natural, but
deforestation, intensive use of petrol and coal, and cars produce huge
quantities of this gas, which contributes to the greenhouse effect.
We have to learn how to reduce our consumption of energy.

THINGS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY CAN DO TO HELP THE PLANET

-Take short showers to save water.
-Turn off the lights when you leave the room.
-Don’t leave the fridge door open for too long.
-Don’t leave water running when you brush your
teeth.
-Turn of TVs and stereos, don’t leave them on
standby.
-Don’t put batteries in the rubbish bin. And use
rechargeable batteries.
-Sell or give away clothes and objects you don’t
use.
-Use eco-friendly products.
-Walk or ride a bicycle or use public transport. Cars
create air and noise pollution and traffic. Pollution from
cars and power stations cause acid rain which can harm
trees and damage buildings and can kill fish.

-Always pick up your rubbish.

-Plant a tree, trees protect the soil from erosion and purify the air by converting carbon dioxide into
oxygen. They also provide food and shelter for other fauna and flora.
-Use recyclable paper and don’t waste paper and paper products.
-Use shopping bags, not plastic bags. Every minute, one million plastic bags are used around the world:
that’s 500 billion plastic bags a year. The bags last 20 to 1,000 years, because they are not
biodegradable. Thousands of marine animals die every year because they accidentally eat old plastic
bags.
-Insulate buildings to stop wasting energy.
