What we can do every day to help limit global warming
Work in groups. Carry out a survey to find out how people in your area are reducing the negative impact of their daily activities on the environment and trying to limit global warming.
Report your survey results to the class.
The report should include the following points:
• what their daily activities used to involve, e.g. driving to work
• how these activities affect global warming, e.g. releasing carbon dioxide emissions
• what people do to reduce their environmental impact, e.g. cycling to work
• what results people get, e.g. reducing carbon footprint
