Announcing the
Together We Have
Earth-Saving Super Powers

contest that will empower children 12 years and under to positively impact the environment... and our future.

Entries may include drawings, paintings or photographs that show how families, classes or individual children use their “Earth-Saving Powers” to protect the environment. Some examples of eco-friendly behaviors include:
recycling
taking mass transportation
encouraging adults to buy energy-efficient light bulbs
helping plant trees
reminding adults to buy non-plastic carrying bags to the grocery store every time they shop

Children need to feel a sense of control over their own futures, and should be encouraged to “flex their muscles” and make positive changes using their natural “super powers,” creating a better, safer tomorrow for themselves and their neighbors. They will learn that even small efforts can bring about big changes!

Parents can help children complete the activity at home while teachers can offer the contest activity as a classroom project, and encourage students to submit their work for prizes.
