Environment Je pense que je suis très écolo. Je vais au collège à pied tous les jours. Le week-end, je prends le bus pour aller en ville parce que les transports en commun polluent moins que les voitures. Et quand je fais du shopping, je refuse les sacs en plastique.

Environment Je ne jette plus, je recycle. Par exemple, j'échange les vêtements que je n'aime plus avec mes copines. À la maison, on trie les déchets: le verre, les plastiques, le papier, l'aluminium, etc. Les gestes les plus simples aident à protéger l'environnement.

Environment Chez moi, mes parents sont assez écolo. Par exemple, on utilise le moins possible de détergents. Et pour économiser l'énergie, on baisse les radiateurs et on met un pull quand il fait un peu froid. On met aussi des feuilles d'aluminium derrière les radiateurs.
