Numerous students of the fifth grade primary school “Crnici“ in Stolac, were surprised with the visit of superhero Beepster who came to convey a very important message about the planet Earth.
“Your planet is suffering!“ – exclaimed Beepster and rallied the students, mini heroes, to save it from global warming, which has a considerable impact on the future of the Earth and its inhabitants.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) enables the atmosphere to retain a part of solar radiation and heat thus preventing the cooling of the Earth and radiation of heat into the space. Due to excessive use of fossil fuels, by which we gain energy, significant amounts of carbon dioxide are released which leads to global warming. Increased temperatures cause natural disasters, such as droughts and floods, contribute to melting of the glaciers which in turn raises the level of seas and oceans, forces forests to retreat to higher altitudes and similar.
Beepomat, device which teaches energy efficient behaviour, was of particular interest to students. Beepster also introduced them to a super thermal imagining camera, that shows how much energy is lost when devices are left in a stand-by mode. Students were also shown an animated movie on climate changes on Earth and smart use of energy.
Beepster will also visit primary schools “Hasim Spahic“ in Sarajevo, “Musa Cazim Catic“ in Zenica as well as the primary school “Hamdija Kresevljakovic“ in Kakanj.
