Earth Day 3 R's
A Plan for Earth Day
Mateo and Luis are getting ready for a park picnic. Instead of taking disposable plates, Mateo packs washable plates from home. Luis fills a reusable water bottle. They bring only the food they expect to eat, so less food is wasted. After lunch, they sort a clean can and an empty plastic bottle into the recycling bin. They save the paper bag to use again for a craft. At home, their family checks local recycling rules because accepted materials can differ from place to place.
