 Splash - You can conserve water. Don't let faucets drip - turn them off tightly after each use. Turn off the faucet when brushing your teeth. Keep a container of water in the refrigerator to avoid running water for a cold drink. Conserve water! |
 E2 - Conserve energy by turning off TVs, radios and computers when not in use. Turn off the lights when you leave the room. Decide what you want before you open the refrigerator door. Use the sunlight whenever you can - sit by a window to read. Save energy! |
 Compost Guy - Compost is nature's way of recycling. You can compost yard waste, like leaves and twigs, and many foods. Leave grass clippings on the lawn when you mow. ItŐs a great way to add nutrients to the soil and saves work and time, too. Don't forget to compost! |

 Motor Oil Guy - Careless dumping of used motor oil can harm aquatic life, wildlife and water supplies. Tell your parents to recycle their used oil, filters and bottles at collection sites across the state. Don't pour South Carolina's future down the drain! |
 Curtis the Crab - The beach is not only a fun place to play, but it's also the home to hundreds of animals. Some animals mistake trash for food and become sick after eating it. That's why it's important to clean up all litter from the beach after a day of sun and fun. Leave only footprints in the sand! |
 Patriot Can Guy - Remember to keep our state and national parks clean. Don't litter - put trash in its proper place. Take aluminum cans, plastic soft drink bottles and newspapers home with you for recycling or recycle them at the park if possible. It's the patriotic thing to do! |
