Dear students,

We have been talking about protecting the planet and the small things we can do to make the difference. Watch this video that shows how the Government of Brazil is disrespecting the environment and the people from Amazonia… Disgusting!!!

I have no words to express the feeling of revolt this brings to me…

You can learn a little more about the people that is going to be homeless with the construction of a dam in the river Xingu, Amazonia.

Trying to use “green” means of transport…

Using biodegradable products instead of plastic…

Turning off the electric appliances instead of using the “standby”…

Summing up, there are many small things we can do and they can make a very big difference!!!!
