go green

During one Go Green Club meeting, students brain-stormed ideas about what we all could do at home to save energy. Here's what our earth-friendly students came up with.

1. Take shorter showers or a bath.
2. Don't have your hot water set too high.
3. Use solar power.
4. Close the shades when it's hot during summer.
5. Cover windows to keep out drafts.
6. Turn out lights when you're not using them.
7. Turn down the heat a little.
8. Go outside to play instead of watching TV.
9. Try to wash full loads of clothes or dishes.
10. Shut off computer when not using.
11. Unplug electrical gadgets and appliances when you can.
12. Wash in cold water.
13. Carpool, ride a bike, walk or take a bus.
14. Turn off extra lights.
15. Hang clothes outside to dry.
16. Keep refrigerator closed.
17. Plan your errands so you make one trip and make a list.
18. Use energy-saving light bulbs.
19. Eat cold no-cook food once a week.
20. Play a musical instrument instead of listening to an IPOD.

Do what's right with what's left(cha cha cha)
Do what's right with what's left(cha cha cha)

If we want to survive, then we've all got to strive, to do what's right with what's left.
(cha cha cha)

Chorus:
Recycle, recycle, recycle, everything!

Listen to the melody
and sing along!
