      The 4 best things people can do at home are:
      Drive less and walk/ cycle or get public transport
      Reduce our footprint by using less electricity (does your phone need charged all night?)
      Turn the heating down 1 or 2 degrees and wear a jumper
      Eat less meat and more vegetables grown in the UK (yum!)

      For the biggest impact, countries and leaders need to help by changing from coal to renewables, and start making oil and petrol and sirty fuels more expensive!

      We can slow down global warming by switching to renewable energy sources. This needs to happen as quickly as possible across the world. All countries need to agree to act now.

      Plant trees, switch of lights and appliances when not in use, walk or cycle to school rather than have your mum or dad drive you

      Stephanie’s basically said my answer word for word here! What I’d like to add is that small changes can make a big difference if every person if doing them! You can make small gradual changes and build them up so that it really isn’t too difficult.
