Many of the things we use every day, like paper bags, soda cans, and milk cartons, are made out of materials that can be recycled. Recycled items are put through a process that makes it possible to create new products out of the materials from the old ones.
- Help the environment by buying products that contain recycled materials.Coffee cans, shoe boxes, margarine containers, and other types of containers people throw away can be used to store things or can become fun arts and crafts projects.
Don't throw out clothes, toys, furniture, and other things that you don't want anymore. Somebody else can probably use them. You can bring them to a center that collects donations, give them to friends, or sell it.
Use durable and long lasting furniture, equipment, utensils and etc.
- Segregate all trash and if things can be saved do not salvage them and use them for future purposes.
