Recycling

                                                                     Recycling

 Recycling is in the most simple terms, reusing our waste products such as, cereal boxes, toilet paper rolls, soda cans and more. If we recycle our products there will be less garbage in the land fills.
If we don't recycle, all of our garbage will be picked up by the garbage trucks.Then the garbage trucks will collect all of our garbage products and dump them into the land fill. More and more waste is being piled up in the land fills every single day.Harmful chemicals and greenhouse gasses are released from rubbish in landfill sites. Recycling helps to reduce the pollution caused by waste. Habitat destruction and global warming are some the affects caused by deforestation.

 We can make anything from recycling. Look at these examples. They have made a bag from Kool aid wrappers, They have made a pouch from keyboard keys and many, many more.
