KS2 Weekly Junior comments
A big meeting called COP30 is happening next month. Many leaders from around the world will attend to talk about how to fight climate change and protect the planet. In this meeting, they will discuss ideas to help reduce pollution, save animals, and make sure the Earth stays healthy for future generations.
Think about what you can do at home or in school to help the planet. What are some small things that you can change to make a difference?
Matilda (Year 4)
What we could do is stop eating meat all the time and only eat meat once or twice a week. The meat should also be produced in the UK so airplanes don’t have to bring it from far away places. However I think it is always okay to try food from other places, like Kiwis and Mangos, which I love. It would be good if fruits and vegetables in the supermarkets would not be wrapped in plastic. That would be an easy way to reduce plastic waste and help the environment. 🐮🌾🌍⭐️
Zionni (year 6)
To save the world at home, you can save electricity by turning off lights when you are not using them. You can also save water by not showering for too long or turning off the tap while brushing your teeth 🦷. When you want some tea, you can put some water into a cup and then in the kettle. To stop wasting electricity, you can turn off all electronics when you are not using them and before you go to bed and so you are not tempted to use your phone at night, you can put it in a safe place or on the floor unless you need it for your alarm in the morning 🌅. You can also pick your and other people’s litter on the floor, no matter at home or in public. Every little detail can make this world to be a better place for people and animal living here on Earth 🌍.
