In 2009, Disney's Friends for Change: Project Green was introduced as a multiplatform initiative that helps kids understand environmental issues. Through the program, kids learn practical ways to help the environment, get their friends involved, track their collective impact and have the opportunity to help decide how $1 million in donations to various environmental causes will be made over the course of a year.
To date,1.5 million pledges have been made to prevent more than 70,000 tons of carbon emissions per year, save nearly 122 million gallons of water per month and prevent close to 200,000 pounds of trash from entering the landfills every month.
Kids can join online at www.Disney.com/projectgreen, where they will commit to taking simple everyday actions,such as turning off the lights and switching to reusable water bottles, and find out more about why these actions matter.
