RecyclingLast year we visited a recycling plant to see how plastic bottles were recycled. We learned a great deal.
Recycling in Prague is taken seriously. You see bins like these near where people live.
Our SurveyWe used Google Spreadsheets to make a survey about recycling to find out about people's attitudes to the subject,
We made charts to show our results

Pros and Cons
pros:
Recycling saves energy
Recycling a single aluminum can saves enough energy to power a TV for three hours.
Making glass from recycled materials cuts related water pollution by 50%
cons:
it costs money to run the machines and all the processes
A Call to ActionRecycling
is very important to our ecosystem. Lots of materials that could be
re-used would go to waste if it weren’t for recycling. Less than 9
2-litre plastic soda bottles to make one adult extra large shirt. If
things are recycled then new things can be produced. Recycling isn’t
hard and everyone should take a little time to make a difference!
Recycling
is a very important aspect of saving the planet - we need to reuse as
many resources as possible. Making new things that could have been
recycled is a major pollution maker - not something that we need.
Awareness for recycling needs to be raised.
You have to recycle
so the planet doesn't end like in the Wall-e movie. I would my friends
tell to recycle more. The government should find a way to recycle more.
People should Recycle! It helps the world so why wouldn't you do it! |
