The War on Waste

People today buy more than ever before. This creates a lot of rubbish. How can we reduce waste so that the Earth doesn’t turn into a giant rubbish bin? We can use the three Rs!

First, we can reduce what we buy. If we only buy what we need, whether that’s food, clothes, books or toys, we won’t create rubbish with the things we don’t need.

Second, we can reuse old things. For example, we can wash empty glass jars and use them to store food instead of throwing them away. We can also use old tins to keep pencils and pens in.

Finally, we can recycle waste. Plastic can take up to 500 years to break down under the ground, and glass can take up to a million years. Therefore, we should recycle items made of plastic, glass and metal by taking them to the nearest recycling bin instead of throwing them into the rubbish bin. Recycling paper saves trees
