RECYCLING INTERNATIONAL DAY


Today is May 17, Recycling International Day.
Do you know what Recycling means? A short definition would be that Recycling is treating things that have been used so that they can be used again. Why Recycling?

  • Saves landfill space because it reduces the amount of trash that must be thrown away.
  • Saves air and water. It does not dirty them as much as making new products from scratch.
  • Saves other resources like aluminum and trees. Fewer new trees must be cut when used paper is recycled.
  • Saves energy. Less energy is needed to recycle used products into new ones than to make new products from scratch.
Which ways can you Recycle?
Tell us one or two specific things a child like you could do to Recycle.

  3. I can recycle by reusing the papers instead of putting them in the trash.
    Also is a good way to recycle by collecting bottles from the trash and using them for others things like a science project.
