The message from this story is that we must all do what we can, however shall the effort. The third story is about Ted, the bear and is entitled 'So, the teddy bears can have their picnic'.
He wants everyone to think of 3 things they can do to help towards saving the planet. If everyone did this, imagine the impact! The fourth story is told by Colin the fly and Asha to not leave our rubbish under trees. We need to throw it in a bin and recycle where possible. The fifth and last story is about cute Sarah Seal and the disappearing ice.

It stresses that we all need to take responsibility for our planet and every little action and effort matter.
