R.R.R.
If you’re wondering what the three R’s are. They’re Recycling, Reusing, and Reducing. And there are a lot of reasons for you to use them. Before we get to that though. An observation that might interest you. Everything we use - in everyday life - comes from the earth. Computers may be man made, but the parts used to make it come from the earth. Don’t they? Some people forget this so they don’t think about recycling at all. How often do you forget that humans came from the earth? This is scientifical of course. If you believe in God then your opinion might be different. That doesn't matter. Just keep an open mind.
If more humans used the three R’s, combined with other adjustments to our economy - such as, using electric cars more than gas powered ones - global warming would, or could, slow. In America today, 77% of people recycle. The country’s goal is to recover - or recycle - 85-90% of waste within seven years. Yet, right now we are only at 32%. If the other 23% would recycle then maybe we’d be able to reach that goal.
It is super easy for people to Recycle, they just don't as that sometimes it takes up their “
recious” time. Well, if you don't have the time you could ask your friend or coworker to help you out. Some say that recycling is a waste and that either way the earth is still dying. If you feel that way, then think about this. If more people recycled then maybe the earth would live longer and our children, and our children’s children would be able to see the stuff we see today. Recycling would also help with some animal problems. one example for this is that a lot of people throw those 6 pack ringlets into the trash and that ends up in the sea. Then, sometimes it will end up in an animals stomach, or maybe around their neck. And it will kill them. Think about what your throwing away and what your recycling. it may help in the long run.To reuse, you don't have to do anything intricate. You could use a water bottle over-and-over again. Or cut parts out of cardboard boxes and use them for a project. See? Not intricate. But, it does help. Like taking plastic bags back to the store once your done. Or, using the backside of old homework for doodling in class - cause a lot of kids just get a new piece and only draw one picture then throw it away right after. Remember, using something over again is better than it getting turned into something of less value. And if you don't reuse something don't recycle it just yet, wait. you might need/want it in the future.
Reducing the amount of waste is easy as well. Reusing something is in fact a way to reduce. one way to reduce is to make your own paper. its not as hard as some people think. use old paper to make new paper. another way to reduce is for people to walk or ride bikes more. Taking shorter showers, turning off lights when you leave a room and doing the dishes maybe only once a week are also ways to reduce waste.
In conclusion, the three R’s are easy and quick. Recycling will help everyone, even animals. Reusing something may help with your creativity. and reducing will give you more “
recious” time. all-in-all, the three R’s - if done properly - will help slow Global Warming. And in return will give our descendants a good place to live. Hopefully.... Right?
