The 3 R's...
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse,
Recycle. I think that most people are familiar with those
words whether or not they actually put it into practice on a
daily basis. Years ago people tossed anything and everything
into the trash. We thought nothing of tossing glass bottles,
plastic bottles, newspapers right into the trash! Much of that
changed in the 1980s when many cities
nationwide implemented curbside recycling
programs. Recycling became a normal part of the daily routine
for many during that time. Even children became familiar with
recycling. The Reduce, Reuse, Recycle curriculum became part of
the education children received in schools. Educating children
to be earth friendly, to think "green" or whatever term you
choose to use is key in keeping this world healthy. There is a
great site that is just perfect for kids but has wonderful
information for parents and teachers, as well.
