Hi Freya! What made you decide to join Roots and Shoots? What’s a Little Thing you enjoy doing to make a difference?
A Little Thing I like to do is save water. Whether it is running water for brushing teeth or any other way of wasting water the water of our world is mostly saltwater. We should try to do the Little Things that help push our tiny world forward.

It’s SOOO good! I shared it with a bunch of people and we’re all signing it! Here’s a website that I just found that talks about a possible new alternative to palm oil: https://theecologist.org/2010/sep/24/forget-palm-oil-and-soya-microalgae-next-big-biofuel-source

Hi Antoinette! Thanks for joining the group! Would you like to share a topic you are passionate about or a project you have taken part in/started?
Hi,i’m passionate about art and animals, right now I’m just a volunteer in a animal shelter.
Volunteering in an animal shelter is a great thing to do! You are making a difference for each of those animals by making their time better AND you are probably gaining some wonderful experience!

Put up posters about the problems with palm oil!
You can put them at markets, post offices, libraries, etc. with their permission! Or if you don’t go out much or haven’t been because of the coronavirus that is fine! You could still put up posters in your yard or neighborhood (again, with permission) or post…[Read more]

I’m part of a club that I started with some of my friends at my school, and we’ve put up posters at our local library, post office, market, and places like that, (with their permission) about climate change and how people can help. Palm Oil problems could do that too maybe, only they would be about palm oil problems!! Just an idea!

Palm Oil Problems 5th challenge!:
Write about the reason that palm oil is bad in at least a couple of paragraphs. You can do research and write about it very detailed or
just write a little bit about the problem. You can show/send this to others or just keep it for yourself!
If you have any questions or comments or anything to add please post! Thanks!!!

Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve made a challenge, I honestly haven’t been able to think of a new one! I was just wondering if any of you might have a suggestion for a challenge. Feel free to suggest as many challenge ideas as you wish! Thanks!!
Maybe we can write about palm oil and how we can help stop the cutting down the rain forest.
That is a really good idea! So just to make sure I’m completely understanding do you mean writing it for our own sake, just like to research and then write it down, or did you mean to show or send to someone else to inform them about the problem? Thank you so much!! If anyone has anymore suggestions I can use them for other challenges
I was thinking that you could pick either one
Okay, thank you so much! I will make the challenge this weekend
Great ♥️

We had 26 people take part in our Virtual Story Time celebrating World Chimpanzee Day! It was so wonderful seeing everyone smiling and laughing during these times of difficulty due to COVID-19. I am so thankful to have been a part of it. It was a great celebration indeed!
