Step by step
What a great suggestion from Team Rainbow! Grab your paper and cut it into squares that are about the same size as a light switch.
Design your signs! Can you think of a catchy slogan to remind people to turn the light off? And maybe a little lights off mascot, like the one Team Rainbow drew.
Stick your signs to light switches all over your home and take photos of a couple once they're up. Turning off lights will save energy and money so you're doing your bank balance a favour as well as the planet.
