Preface

We are a group of teachers and students who have met in the "Inclusion Hand in Hand With Environmental Education! eTwinning project" (2025-2026). We have done so many wonderful activities about fighting against environmental problems so far. We have written and wanted to share the adventures of our Green heroes and heroines with you! We believe that literature can educate people and save Earth! You are also a hero for us as you read this book and learn from it! We tried to show a great sample of solidarity for a greener future with our heroes from different contexts and with various powers. All the heroes are designed by our real heroes and heroines, that is our beloved students!

Let the story begin...

Eco-Logix: Küresel Isınmaya Karşı Matematiksel Kalkan Etlik Anadolu İmam Hatıp Ortaokulu, Aynur Kesenek ve ekibi

In a world where the sun begins to disappear behind grey waste clouds and the earth's temperature rises rapidly every day, four laboratories in Turkey, Romania, Slovakia, and Portugal receive a common alarm signal. These children decide to use equations instead of magic words. By combining the "Green Soul" of nature with the "Logic" of data, Eco-Logix is born

This 12-year-old hero has no cape; he wears blue-green digital armor that shows real-time CO2 levels and temperature changes. In his holographic tablet, mathematical symbols like %, =, and Σ, which determine the planet's future, sparkle.

Eco-Logix's first stop is a school. When our hero activates his "Sustainability Lens," he sees a massive heat cloud hanging over the school: The Carbon Footprint.

Eco-Logix calls out to the students: "We cannot destroy this with power alone; we must calculate! To stop global warming, we must keep the planet's temperature at the 1.5°C limit." He begins to analyze energy usage and paper waste.

"If we reduce our waste by 20%, the digital trees we plant today will turn into reality tomorrow!" he says. As the numbers drop, the heat cloud dissipates, and the sky turns a clear blue once again.

The story doesn't end here! You need to solve the codes to help Eco-Logix escape from the factory.

While Ecologix deals with carbon footprint problem, Lotus and Bloom are determined to stop air pollution. 

Our heroes love being in nature since childhood. They always wake up early in the morning and start the day with watching the sky. As they grew older, they have realised that the sky is not so bright. They have  noticed that flowers are wilting, trees are dying, and smoke from factories and cars are restricting the living spaces of living creatures. So they immediately search for solutions.

Their first stop is schools where there are lots of children who can help them. They launch the “Breath Map” project at schools. In this project, they raise awareness among students about air pollution and teach them how to make simple air measurement devices.

 Lotus and Bloom also measure the air quality around the world using their own digital tablets. In a short time, they clearly identify the polluted and clean areas of the world, but they don't stop there. They launch an initiative called “Clean cities.”

Thanks to this project, the devices designed by children will be widely distributed. Worldwide, the use of private vehicles for short distances gets restricted, factories are required to publicly share their measurements, recycling workshops are established, and people decorate streets, shop fronts, apartment terraces and balconies with plants that purify the air.

In a short time, people will not only see air pollution, but also measure it, share it, and question it. Eventually air pollution in nature will decrease.

Over time, the sky will become clear blue, birds will sing merrily, plants will bloom with their awesome fragrances, rabbits will run freely, people will breathe clean air comfortably, and children will play happily in nature.

April, The Heroine calculated that the eggs stay for 60 days under the sand! They try to reach the sea from June to the end of September! This timeline is a summer holiday time, so she needs to do an action to warn people! She decided to place signs to save the nests of loggerheads and raise people's consicousness that their species are under the risk of extinction! she also left detection machines to notice any threat to the nests of the loggerheads!

Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Sources

Prof. Susana Costa, Agrupamento de Escolas Padre Benjamim Salgado

In a modern city called Green Valley, people were using too much energy. Lights stayed on all night, machines kept running even when nobody needed them, and pollution was slowly increasing. The city needed help.

One day, a brilliant group of scientists created a powerful artificial intelligence called Energia. Energia was designed to understand energy use and help people save electricity while protecting the planet.

But Energia was not just a computer. The scientists built a special suit that allowed the AI to become a real hero. When the suit was activated, a superhero appeared: the Energy Guardian.

The Energy Guardian had amazing powers. With his intelligent sensors, he could detect where energy was being wasted. His glowing green suit stored clean energy from the sun, wind, and water. Whenever he found a problem, he used artificial intelligence to solve it.
