Become a Steward
Become a Steward
An environmental steward is someone who knows why and how to take care of our planet and is taking some actions to do it.
A steward also tells other people what they can do to help too.
There are a lot of easy changes you can make in your life to make your impact on the environment smaller, which is a big part of being a steward.
Race to Stewardship
You've got only one week to prove that you can help the environment!
Tell a friend about the changes you want to make and challenge them to a race, a race to stewardship!
Pick one of the game boards and give the other one to a friend. Every day try something new to help take care of the environment. When you've done it, check it off.
Add up your points at the end and see who won the race!
Once you've finished the race you're on your way to becoming an environmental steward. This is just a beginning. The real challenge to is to keep it up.
Try to calculate your ecological footprint. If you already have, try it again. Have you made it any smaller?
