Save Santa's runway from melting
 |
pa.press.net |
Santa and his elves might be loading up his sleigh with presents in time for Christmas delivery, but now that the runway is melting due to global warming, how will they ever take off?
This Christmas Eve from 4pm-6pm, you're requested to help Santa and his elves by logging onto the website www.green-santa.com to see whether Santa succeeds and takes off.
Dr Maurice Bergs, who will carry out the 'live' broadcast on the site, says: "Now's a vital time for Santa - if the runway is not long enough there will be a big splash and a lot of disappointed children on Christmas Day.
"It's important that we keep saving every last dribble of energy to help him out. We can do it!"
Earlier this month the Green Santa website was launched inviting families to get involved in environmentally friendly initiatives to help stop global warming.
The site is loaded with tips on what kids and families can do to reduce their impact on global warming, ensuring that Santa and his elves take off this Christmas - and for many more to come. Visit www.green-santa.com to learn more.
