The 3Rs in our school
ResponderEliminarYou are informed about the 3Rs no? ok I will only say you that are Reuse Reduce and Recycle you can use this in the school by throw the recycle materials on the recycle trash and like that. But remember this is for the planet and you.
Let's use the 3 R's
ResponderEliminarThe 3 r's are made of:Reduce,Reuse and Recycle,they are very important because the planet is having a lot of unnecesary waste snd with the 3 R's we can help it by reducing,reusing and recycling.so we can now begin by separating the trash
If you reduce you win!!
ResponderEliminarThe 3Rs are important because it help us to minimize the amount of wastes that we do.
The 3Rs are:
Reduce means that we need to help us to minimize the wastes
Reuse means that we use the same item a lot of times
Recycle means processing used materials into new products.
And my idea of all of this is that instead of a bath of 10 minutes you take a bath of 5 minutes and doing this you are reducing water
