Plant trees.
Read the guidelines printed on your family's recycling box or bin to see what you can recycle and what you can't. Usually, you can at least recycle paper, thin plastic (like milk jugs and shopping bags), thin metal (like pop cans) and glass.

Think about what you personally use up and wear out.
Kids grow out of clothes, toys, etc (so do some adults!) but try to keep wearing or using the things you have for a long as possible. It is a bit of a waste of the world's precious resources if you get a new backpack just because you are bored with the old one, the same goes for anything you use, or consume. Look after and appreciate what you have.
Reduce your energy consumption.
Turn off lights and electronics (such as TVs and game systems) when you're done using them. Ask your parents before you turn off the family computer, though: sometimes, computers need to stay on for various reasons. During the day, open curtains and blinds, and rely on natural light instead of electric light.
Start reusing items.
Be sure to rinse and clean reusable shopping bags about once a week, to keep them from getting grimy. Scrub them out briskly in the kitchen sink with a dishcloth or sponge and let them dry on the dish rack for a couple of hours.
Go over a tree guide with your parents and find trees that will grow to an appropriate height in your climate zone, without causing problems elsewhere in the yard. There's a tree for almost every height and climate.
Be sure to get care instructions for your tree, and water it regularly after it's planted. Take care of the sapling, and by the time you're grown up, you'll have a fine, strong tree that grew up right alongside you.
