Recycle your newspapers etc. If you have a wood stove (Like my parents do) burn your paper plates, napkins etc. Get involved, volunteer, plant a tree, pick up garbage etc. Don't bring things border to border (it brings alien species which is bad for the environment)

Another way to help save the planet is to write a persuasive letter to save the rainforest, endangered animals or convince people to donate to charities!
