Cycle of Life for Kids:
Music, ecology, education… action!
Cycle of Life gives options for eco action. It provides basic information on how you can help endangered species by doing something as simple as recycling beverage containers. And it provides you with a global platform for sharing your ideas about sustainability. What kids are saying about Cycle of Life.
Music
Listen to a sampler from the Cycle of Life series of French and English CDs, or download an episode of the Voices of Nature Radio Show. It’s music with a message. Cycle of Life playlist.
Ecology
Cool facts on Ecozones, Extinction, and A Brief History of Canada. Visit Cool Bear’s den.
Education
Man’s ecological footprint has been calculated at 2.3 hectares for every human on the planet. The amount of productive land (and ocean) available to support life is about 1.9 hectares per person. That’s a problem. Our ecological footprint is unsustainable, and we’re not the only ones at risk. Learn more about your ecological footprint and how you can support endangered species by recycling more.
