Think Green: A Healthy Planet Show
Eugene and Melissa Clark, along with Ted Ant, are looking for some kids that want to SAVE THE
PLANET! This action packed 45 minute program is filled with audience participation, and plenty
of simple ways that students can start making this world a better place “right now”! Ted Ant
invites students onstage throughout the program to emphasize the four R’s, Recycle, Reduce,
Reuse, and Restore. Each section of the show teaches the students how to think about ways
that they can keep the planet healthy. Reducing our use of electricity can be achieved by
changing the light bulbs we use at home and switching to a compact florescent bulb. This will
save electricity and conserve energy. Recycling paper, plastic, cans and glass, will contribute
to less waste in our landfills. Creatively reusing things that we would ordinarily throw away, like
turning a plastic 2 liter pop bottle into a bird feeder, or a glass bottle into a flower vase, will
inspire students to look at the world in a different way. Restoring the Earth by planting
trees will help to renew our environment and provide more clean air for us to breathe. Other
aspects of this show discuss how important it is to keep not only our air clean, but our water
as well. Reusing things like plastic bags, will help to keep our planet clean and safe.
Students have an opportunity to contribute their own ideas to this show as Ted Ant reminds
everyone that we live in “A Wonderful World”. Let’s keep it that way! The time is now!
Great for K-8.
