The Three R's of the Environment
It's time to learn the three R's of the environment: reduce, reuse, recycle. Then practice what you preach-
Don't buy things you don't need or items that come in wasteful packaging or that cannot be recycled.
Reuse and recycle whatever you can.
Reduce
Reducing the amount of waste you produce is the best way to help the environment.
There are lots of ways to do this.
Instead of throwing things away, try to find ways to use them again!
For example:
- Bring cloth sacks to the store with you instead of taking home new paper or plastic bags. You can use these sacks again and again. You'll be saving some trees!
Recycle
Many of the things we use every day, like paper bags, soda cans, and milk cartons, are made out of materials that can be recycled.
Recycled items are put through a process that makes it possible to create new products out of the materials from the old ones.
