H, I'm Cindy. I live in a town in Australia. We have a lot of cars in my town, and in the summer we often have smog over the town that makes my asthma really bad.

Do you have smog where you live?
Do you have any health problems (allergies or asthma) that are connected to the air?

I always get a bad cough on hot, summer days when the air smells bad, too. But now my mom can look up on the internet how clean the air is, which is called "air quality index", and she doesn't let me go out when it's really bad.

We have smog in our city - its a really big city anyway -but fortunately it does not make me sick. Usually I go by bicycle to the school. [Kori - Hungary]

 

Hi, I'm Cindy. I live in a town in Australia. We have running water here, and I see us wasting it. We waste it in when we sprinkle our lawn, when we flush our toilet, when we let it run during toothbrushing, or when we want to drink really cold tapwater. Being so careless with water makes me upset.

Do you waste water at your house?
Can you think of ways to save water?

Hi, I'm Cindy. I live in a town in Australia. We have a glass factory that recycles waste to make new glass. This also saves energy. I also like to make things out of cans and boxes.

Do you know of companies in your area that use waste to make something?
Do you like to make new things from old?

Hi, I'm Cindy. I live in a town in Australia. We have lots of sun, so we built solar collectors onto our rooves. These cells heat our water.

How do you use the Sun's energy?

We have sun collectors that heats the water in our pool. [Johannes- Australia]

 

Hi, I'm Cindy. I live in a town in Australia. Our town has lots of buildings and roads, but it only has a few parks. We can't step on the grass in these parks. We can't keep big animals at our houses either. Some animals we only get to see in the Zoo.

Do you have lots of animals, free lands and woods where you live?
