A greener earth is a healthier, happier earth… which means healthier, happier humans!

It’s never too young to start learning about environmental issues – after all, our children are the future. So bring your eager young ecologists along to Our Dynamic Earth, where we’ll nurture their interest in creating a greener earth for generations to come.

During your visit to our interactive science museum in Edinburgh, the state-of-the-art technology in our FutureDome will allow you to experience the planet’s future as if you were actually there. Here we present you with the choices we can all make about how to protect our planet and our place on it – bearing in mind that we’re the ones who are at most immediate risk.

We don’t issue ultimatums – we just want you to learn what science tells us about the past, the present and the likely future. And when you see the consequences of not rising to the eco-challenge, you’ll be left in no doubt about the importance of protecting our precious earth right away – after all, it’s the only one we have!

Even small green steps can make a giant difference

Everyone, young and old, can do their bit towards achieving a greener earth, so don’t delay – become a green superhero today and help protect our planet by introducing a few small changes to your lifestyle.

For example:

• Use recycling facilities which allow you to recycle all sorts of waste, including paper, glass, and even your old clothes.
• Take your own bags to the shops to carry home your groceries and shopping.
• Leave the car at home and stretch your legs a little, by either walking or cycling. For long distances, take the bus or train instead!
• Use rechargeable batteries.
• Swap your old-fashioned filament light bulbs for new energy-saving ones.
• Turn off your TVs and stereos at the mains when they’re not in use.

Visit our children’s science museum in Edinburgh on your next day out in Scotland, and find out what other things you can do to help make a greener earth.
