Hey little inventors, thanks for your help!
The way we produce and use energy is the biggest reason for pollution on Earth.
It affects all living things on the planet; humans, animals, and plants - and small changes to the way we create and use energy every day can make a big difference in improving the health of Earth.
Your challenge was to invent something that generated energy, saved energy, or used energy better!
Like harnessing the energy from a live orchestra or from bouncing on a pogo stick. How about inventing a way to fly without using a plane or any fuel? Or something that turns off all of the light switches when we’re not in the room?
Well done to everyone who turned on that inventing switch and felt the power!
