PS261 believes in activism: the belief in or
practice of trying to make social changes through active involvement.
Think about the needs you see in your community
(at school, in your neighborhood, in NYC, etc.) Choose one of those needs you
see and describe it in detail.
How can you help change things for the better?
What are some things kids can do to help their community?
I think what I can do to help my community is I can not leave the water running. Another thing I can do is to pick up litter on the street because I don't know why but the litter makes the earth warmer and then the ice mountains start to melt.
ReplyDeleteThe way I would help the community would be to not buy phones and other devices or at least buy them less because they contain extremely rare earth metals and for example lion aka lithium iodine batteries also known as rechargeable batteries.
ReplyDeleteI think to help the community we can use less styrofoam
ReplyDeletebecause styrofoam takes so long to break down it just
sits on the planet and doesn’t decompose so if restaurants
don’t use styrofoam cups anymore it would help the world.
To help the community kids can stop littering or pick up
trash.
I think i can do a fundraiser to raise money for the poor people,and i can stop littering,and give food to the poor,and i can give clothes to the poor,and give present to the poor for christmas.
ReplyDeleteI think that we can help our enviorment by not polluting our ocean a d stop leaving trash out in the streets so it gets into the ocean.
ReplyDeleteAnother way we can our community is we can stop leaving our faucets on for so long because in Moroco and Palistine theres barely any WATER!
I really agree with you chole. I like added pollution in it and made it so wonderful
DeleteHow I can change things for the better is use less plastic, which will control climate control and global warming, using less devices for battery usage which makes global warming worse and helping drivers who pass the red light or speeding, etc. To make a group with driving counselors to help them, so we don’t have as many accidents. What kids can help with is setting rules with their parents like, no phones at the table or use your manners and stuff like that. Also, another thing is they could make posters on top of their garbage bin like paper, plastic and regular garbage, so their parents recycle.

imlike how you nubered it
DeleteI think we can try to use less water Everwhere and try doing less crimes andstop littering and use less plastic and less using electrical devices dont leave power on, the needs that we need are less doing bad things and more good people and turning off things your not using.
ReplyDelete1. I believe Brooklyn needs more green spaces so trees and plants can grow to supply fresh air.
ReplyDelete2. I believe NY should turn public transportation buses from gas to electric. This will help the environment by not creating air pollution.
3. NY should ban all smoking and vaping. This will help save lives and help stop air pollution.
4. NY should have more homeless job placement programs. This will help them stay off the street, learn to work and earn a living.
I think I can help the community by being more positive and kind because just a tiny step can make a persons whole day. We can also help by not loittering because when we litter all the trash gets in the ocean and it endangers all the poor sea animals. Some things kids can do is help other classmates with there work if they don't understand it, cheer people up when there sad, share, don't litter and just be a bit extra kind to everybody because doing all of that can make a person feel a lot better. We as kids are activist and just because we are kids doesn't mean we can't be as good as activists as adults, we can make big change in the world one step at time and make a huge difference in the world.
ReplyDeleteI think people should stop using too much water because if we run out of water we won't have any more too use. Water is extremely important to society. I could stop using to much water by turning off the sink when i'm brushing my teeth I could also use less internet and light in my home.I am going to tell my mom to get a recycling bin for after we drink water.I could help my community by helping the homeless with food and a sleeping bag or something else they need to survive.I could also pick up trash on the street and throw it away.
