REDUCE
Lots of the items we use regularly are made of plastic. We need
companies to think about whether items have to be made of plastic
or if a different material will work just as well.
REUSE
Around half of the plastic made each year is only used once
before it is thrown away. We need to change this, and use things multiple times. We also need to give plastic things we no longer
use to other people to use.
RECYCLE
Once plastic stuff has been reused lots of times, it should
be recycled and turned into new plastic items, rather than being
thrown away.
REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLEThere are three ways you can help save our planet from plastic: 1) REDUCE the amount of
plastic you use, 2) REUSE plastic items and 3) RECYCLE plastic once you’ve used it lots of times. Can you sort each of the plastic items below into the relevant box or boxes?
What other plastic items could go into those boxes?

GET RECYCLING!Use the grid below to track what you recycle each week. For each item you recycle, colour in a box.
Why not create a sheet each week and see if your recycling improves over time?
