Environment: How to Recycle

The 3 words to remember when it comes to recycling are:
REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE!

There is a lot you can do to help conserve the earth's resources. Think about what you do everyday and how you could REDUCE the amount of what you use, REUSE something that you've already used before, or RECYCLE what you don't need anymore!

REDUCE:

Turn the faucet off while you brush your teeth (it reduces the amount of water you use).

REUSE:

Use both sides of a sheet of paper before recycling it
(so you'll reuse paper!)

RECYCLE:

The 5 steps of recycling: COLLECT, SEPARATE, REMAKE, MARKET and REUSE. Here are ways to be part of that process:

Return soda cans to the supermarket
(so you'll help the supermarket collect bottles to be recycled!)
