What you can do if you want to be like Monica:
-
Dig in deeper: If you don’t know the science behind climate change or biodiversity loss, ask your science teacher or a librarian to recommend some good books and articles about the subject.
-
Take action: Find a local conservation group and ask them what you can do to help.
-
Become an explorer: Visit new places whenever you can. What is different from where you live? What is the same? If you can’t travel right now, learn a new language or explore other cultures by reading or watching videos about life in other countries.
