Recycling Awarness

All these activities helped me learn a lot about how our waste is being treated and what we can do to help the environment. There is a lot of way people can practice the 4R's in their life. Every day before you think of throwing some thing away, think about it before you throw it in to the trash. One mans trash is another mans treasure. Not everything is waste, most of the people think it is, but what can you do with a can of soda?, recycle it to make a new one. There is various of places to throw away curtain things like, batteries, oil, plastic bottles and cell phones. All it takes is a little bit of effort to get to that destination. For cell phones and electronic devices, you may contact, Centromax located in Hayward California, phone number (510) 786-9988. For batteries, you may contact H.C.R.P. located in Hayward California, phone number (510) 537-9963. For bottles, you may contact, Hayward Curbside, phone number (510)9963 located in Hayward California. There is many places you may find to recycle many different items.
I have personally learned how we can make Earth a better place to live. There are tons and tons of waste being spred all over the world. If we combine forces to help each other out by, putting programs at school to practice the 4R's and teaching every body about Composting and how effective this is, it can help dramatically all over. The thing is that schools need to start putting out more recycle bins like our school is doing. This way people can see how important is getting to recycle. There are many way to recycle at home, and how to reduce waste. The best way is to buy items that can be reused, or recycled that way if you need to get rid of it you wont have to throw it in the trash, just simply put it in the bin.
When i went to the Davis Street Center, i had never knew what we can do with recycled items, i mean it was incredible. They made a whole entire building out of recycled items. Made rug out of old clothes, windows, and more, all out of recycled things. This taught me that there is more to the item you throw away then meets the eye. Now i can know what to do and how to help out in my community, just easy and simply use the 4R's. You may use this method any were you go. The best thing you can do if you are reading this is, "SPREAD THE WORD", tell any body you know how to use the 4R's and what they stand for so they could have a better idea of what us as students at Tennyson High are trying to do.
