Listen Later

Welcome back to We Root for Earth! We are a group that is dedicated to helping restore our environment. We’d also love it if you would come on this journey with us and as we try new things to help mend our environment.

This podcast discusses the Thwaites Glacier, a glacier that scientists call the doomsday glacier. 

Here are some ways to reduce your C02 Emissions and save the Thwaites Glacier:

  • Take showers instead of baths
  • Use a reusable water bottle
  • Keep windows and blinds closed
  • Turn off your lights when you’re not using them
  • Use cold water when washing your clothes
  • Use your dishwasher rather than hand washing dishes
  • Try carpooling or walking/biking in substitute for cars
  • Refraining from using single-use plastics
  • Taking a walk with gloves and a trash bag to clean up your neighborhood
