Yes, that’s right, as Friends of Rupert,
I hope you will remember him
and all of his friends who live in the forests,
the deserts and the rivers and all around us,
even though we may not be able to see them.
They’re counting on you
and on me to help keep the planet clean and safe.
But that doesn’t mean just recycling water bottles.
That means recycling as much as we can,
and remembering to ALWAYS throw our garbage away where it belongs.
To not just leave it on the ground or somewhere that it doesn’t belong.
I have been a LOT of places in my life,
and I’ve seen a LOT of people throw garbage on the ground,
and that’s something you and I need to make WE don’t do.
It isn’t someone ELSE’S job to pick up after me, it’s MY job.
And it’s YOUR job to pick up after YOU.
Have you ever taken a walk around your neighborhood?
Do you ever see garbage laying around?
How about at a festival or a picnic or some other event?
Does everyone always pick up after themselves?
Not everyone always does the right things,
but YOU can make a difference.
Whether you choose to be a GOOD difference
or a BAD difference is up to you.
How we choose to help take care of Mother Earth
is up to each of US.
Here’s a song to help you remember to reduce, reuse and recycle.
It’s called Words That We All Know.
Some of you will probably recognize the tune right away.
So sing along when you can!
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle –words that we all know,
We have to help our planet, so we can live and grow.
We might be only two or three, but we will try, you’ll see,
We can make a difference, it’s up to you and me.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – it’s as easy as can be,
Recycle cans and plastic, and even batteries.
Reduce your trash and garbage, the stuff you throw away,
Together you and I can find a better way.
Yes we can!
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – it’s up to you and me,
Turn down your lights and off your electricity.
Learn to use less water – only what you need,
Remember, remember, it’s up to you and me.
Let’s try it again, shall we?
All right, here we go.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle –words that we all know,
We have to help our planet, so we can live and grow.
We might be only two or three, but we will try, you’ll see,
We can make a difference, it’s up to you and me.

Yes it is!
You and I can make a BIG difference!
Remember: Your choices MAKE a difference.
YOU make a difference.
Next up is something a little different than usual.
So keep watching!
