Reducing Waste and Recycling
Waste Not, Want Not!
Reducing waste and recycling are simple ways to protect the environment every day.
Ways to Reduce Waste
- Use reusable bags, bottles, and containers.
- Compost food scraps to return nutrients to the soil.
- Buy only what you need and avoid single-use items.
How Recycling Helps
Recycling turns old products into new ones, saving resources and energy. It keeps trash out of landfills and reduces pollution.
Getting Involved
Look for recycling programs at school or in your community, and help teach others about the benefits.
Make a Difference
Small changes add up—less waste means a cleaner, greener planet!
Examples
Sorting paper, plastic, and metal into separate bins at home or school.
Using a lunchbox instead of disposable bags.
