Reducing energy use Coxhoe Primary School

Why should we save energy? ...and who for? Because the earth only has so much coal, like a special Birthday cake once its gone its gone so we should use it wisely. Because it costs the school a lot of money we could be spending on other good things like school trips! Because most energy is made by burning coal and gas which causes pollution which is bad for us and the environment. for them for us

This is our planet, the Earth. We only have one.

If everyone on the earth used the planet's resources like us we would need 3.1planets!

But if everyone on the earth used the planet's resources like… India, we would only need 0.4 planets… or Malawi, 0.3 planets.

Can we really make a difference? It’s true that we are just one school but… there are over 200 primary schools in County Durham and over 20,000 primary schools in the UK! Older children to read out in order (or I will if you want me to)

Can we really make a difference? If we do our bit, and every other school does their bit, then we really can make a big impact! Children to read text (the animation will take a while to fill in)

We can turn off our computers when we are finished with them. Children to explain, can IT Care taker send them to sleep rather than screen saver??

Switch off our projectors when we are not using them. Children to explain

… and only switch on the ones we really need. Turn all lights off when you leave a room… Children to explaing … and only switch on the ones we really need.

Remember what the dots mean? Children to explain the dots
