Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – no rubbish

William Scott Mackereth 2T

How can we change the world?Turn lights off when you leave the room

Plant more trees for cleaner air

Turn the tap off while we’re brushing our teeth

Do less electrical things like watching TV

Turn things off at the switch

Don’t pollute the air with smoke

Why reusing is importantNot throwing stuff away like a consumerist

societyYou can reuse lots of things like:

Cardboard boxes PaperBottlesLunchboxes

RecyclingRecycling is different from reusing because

you can make stuff into things, such as:Paper into cardboardRubber tyres into playgroundsDirty nappies into park chairs

Nappy recyclingA disposable nappy can take 500 years to

break downAustralians use 800 million disposable

nappies each year – enough to fill the MCG three times

Disposable nappies can be recycled and made into park chairs, jetties and other things
