Make a nature journal to record your observations about your surroundings.
Take photographs of your local environment and the plants and animals that live there.
If you are a teacher, integrate some environmental lessons into your classes. Create posters about the importance of taking care of our local environment, do a nature craft like leaf rubbings, or research local plants and animals.
