On Thursday, February 9th, many Canadians will be joining in WWF’s National Sweater Day and we’d like to encourage you to take part in this celebration of energy conservation.
Our classroom will join schools across Canada by turning down our thermostats, wearing sweaters and bringing out the best conservation efforts in all of us. Students are encouraged to wear a sweater - the more interesting or colourful - the better.
Residential heating is a major contributor to the changing climate. If every Canadian turned down their thermostat by two degrees Celsius each winter, 2.2 mega-tonnes of carbon dioxide could be saved every year – equivalent to taking 350,000 cars off the road.
Join us February 9th by wearing a sweater! For ideas on how you can get involved please visit http://www.sweaterday.ca
