This weeks blogging challenge – the 3 r’s

March 23, 2009 | | 6 Comments

What are the 3R’s?  If you asked your grandparents they would say reading, ‘riting and ‘rithmetic. Three of the most basic skills needed to survive in the twentieth century.

But we are now in the 21st century, so what do the 3R’s represent now?  Reduce, reuse and recycle.

How do you reduce, reuse and recycle at your home or school?

Are you and your family going to take part in Earth Hour on 28th March at 8.30pm? What would you normally be doing at this time of day?  Will you need to practise doing something in the dark like the fellow in this video? Check out their website to find out what is going to be happening around the world.

    At school we have an eco button hooked up to one of the computers. When you press it, the computer goes on standby, which saves energey. Today we have saved just over two pounds. :O
