Question
Please help to start a recycling program. To start a program, we need help from the school principal, the janitor, and our parents. Each classroom in the school needs a used-paper collection box. We can make these ourselves out of empty cardboard boxes.
We can use garbage cans with clear bags to collect empty drink containers in the lunchroom. We can make posters to show people where to put the used paper and empty containers. We students care about the earth, and want to keep it clean. We need a recycling program to do this—and we all need to pitch in to start one!
