1. The Green Footprint Group Eco RoadShow- Now a GFG member school! Greener schools for the future GFG

2. What is the GFG? And why should you care about it?!

3. A few key words you need to know! Carbon dioxide Pollution Photosynthesis Biodiversity Global warming

4. What impact do humans have on animals?

5. Why this matters to humans and the planet

6. Examples of Habitats

7. What is biodiversity? The earth has supported life for over 3.5 billion years! Biodiversity is what we call the way animals and plants live together Different habitats have different animals and plants living in them, we can then say that they have different biodiversity in them

8. How much biodiversity is in your school? Biodiversity in your school Plants Insects Other species Your teachers?!

9. What is waste? Rubbish that you throw away Unwanted items Can’t be reused A waste of resources too:  Energy  Water Your waste might not be someone else’s waste

10. How much do we waste? We currently waste far too much- think of how much you throw away at home UK businesses waste £1 in every £3 in energy that they use Each person throws away seven times their body weights in food rubbish each year On average, up to 50% of rubbish in a dustbin can be composted The UK produces more than 434 million tonnes of waste every year!

11. Recycling! Another idea is to recycle some of the materials that you would have thrown away Up to 60% of rubbish ending up in the dustbin is able to be recycled. Instead of binning it, you save it and then put it into a recycling bin for it to be reused

12. What can you recycle? Cans, glass, paper and plastic can all be recycled If you have a black box at home you can put cans, glass and paper into it for the council to recycle it

14. What is renewable energy? Energy that can be used over and over again and will never run out Cleaner and less harmful to the environment that fossil fuels The main renewable energy supplies are wind, water, solar and biofuel The UK has set itself a goal of deriving 10% of UK electricity from renewable sources by 2010- is this enough?

15. Wind Power!

16. Solar Power!

17. The world in 100 years… What would you like the world to be like in 100 years?
