Five Simple Ways to Raise an Eco-Friendly Household
Hristova, Eleonora
Primary Science, n173 p26-27 May 2022
The author gives some simple but effective suggestions on 'going green' at home, including: (1) Get your children to love the outdoors; (2) Eat healthy and organic; (3) Reduce organic waste by composting; (4) Teach your children about the three Rs of recycling; and (5) Minimise your water consumption. Trusted adults modelling good eco-practices within the home means that children are more likely to adopt the same sound lifelong eco-behaviours and, in turn, pass them on to the next generation.
