project and service learning.

and recycle old phone books
- host
a park clean-up day
- promote
water conservation
- put
up posters of ways to conserve electricity
- teach
a workshop on making crafts from used items (such as a Coke
can lamp)
- help
senior citizens make Christmas ornaments from used items
(such as bottles or light bulbs)
- assist
with exotic plant control at a nature education center
- put
up recycling bins at the county fair and give the money
earned to a local charity
- help
clean up after a flood, tornado, or other disaster

How can you help your community through conservation?
We
have a duty in our country to make sure
our land is preserved, our air is clean,
our water is pure, our parks are accessible
and open and well-preserved.
~
President George W. Bush
