                  Ans.  We can do the following in order to use our resources sensibly:
                       ●  Reusing paper, glass, plastic, water, etc.
                       ●  Taking cloth bags to market carrying fruits and vegetables.
                       ●  Donate things we do not use such as clothes, books, furniture, food, etc.
                       ●  Buy and eat seasonal fruits and vegetables from local growers.
                       ●  Repair leaking taps and pipes to avoid wasting water.
                       ●  Sort and treat garbage before disposing off it.

                                                                                                        Skills  #Initiative
                    1.  On the last day of your class before the start of the summer holidays, you saw some unwanted books and material lying
                       here and there. How do you wish to dispose of them following green skills?
                  Ans.  Give them to a scrap dealer for recycling paper.
                    2.  Can you describe a project or activity you participated in that aimed to promote sustainability within your local community
                       or city? What actions did you take to contribute to creating a more sustainable environment, and what impact did your
                       efforts have on the community?
                  Ans  Last year, I helped lead a project in my neighbourhood to reduce plastic waste by promoting reusable cloth bags instead
                       of single-use plastic. We organised educational workshops and distributed cloth bags, leading to local businesses adopting
                       sustainable practices. This initiative not only reduced plastic pollution but also raised awareness about environmental
                       stewardship in our community.
