I've collected a list of helpful links for each topic to make it easier for you to find high quality resources quickly.
If you use other sites, make sure that you check that they are trustworthy. There is a lot of nonsense out there online! If you can't be sure, then don't use the information.
Always collect the URL of any site you use for information or images. You should paste these URLs onto the back of your poster, the end of your letter or the notes field of your PPT.
Remember that you can also find information about making different kinds of products on the Running a Campaign tab.
If you want to join a beach clean, dates and times can be found on the Clean Earth Trust Facebook page - but you will need to access this outside school. If you want to persuade people to join a beach clean you could put this link on posters: https://www.facebook.com/TheCleanEarthTrust
or use the QR code below (always a good idea to give the link and the QR code on a poster in case someone can't access the code).
