• Creation is everything. If creation dies we die. If trees are destroyed or cut down we won’t have any oxygen to breathe and the animals will lose their homes. Creation has a limit on it -it can’t keep producing. Creation is wonderful and we (as humans) need to make sure it stays like that.

• I can look after the environment by recycling paper I use, reusing water bottles, asking mum and dad to help make a worm farm, get a water tank at home to collect the water and building a compost at home. If we don’t care about looking after the environment, we will destroy the land, the rainforests, the lakes and our homes.

My three ways to care for God’s creation

My three ways to care for God’s creation

• One of the ways I can care for God’s creation is by saving Electricity. I can save Electricity by turning off all Electrical appliances and not waste time on the computer. On sunny days I can go outside and play and not play computer games. This is important to me because I can get exercise and keep fit.

• I can also care for God’s creation by looking after trees. I can look after trees by not cutting them down and by planting more trees for native animals. I can also look after trees by supporting “National Tree Day”. This will result in clean air and we’ll be saving the trees. I can also recycle paper and fill up the whole page before printing from the computer. Caring for the trees is important to me because it means the native animals have

more homes to live in.

• I can care for God’s creation by saving water. I can save water by fixing dripping taps and having shorter showers. I can also save water by getting a water tank to collect the rain water and having less baths. I can save water by fitting water flow devices on the taps. It is important to save water because we may run low in our dams and run out altogether.

How I Can Be Responsible For Animals

How I Can Be Responsible For Animals

• To be responsible I need to take animals to the vet on a regular basis for check ups. If my animal is hurt or injured it needs medical attention from the vet. If you are not responsible and don’t take care of your animals we are not looking after God’s creation. If you don‘t feed your animals they will go hungry and die. If you don’t give your animals fresh water they will die and if you do this, you kill God’s creation.
