The three R´s

                                                                  
                           
                                                          The three R´s


Reduce, reuse, recycle.

You can recycle  paper, cardbord  and you can use low-energy light bulbs.

Buy things only if it's necessary.

Reuse by donating your stuff.

Recycling basiscs and benefits.

Paper makes up nearly 30 percent of all wastes Americans throw away each year, more than any other material. Americans recycled about 63 percent of the paper they used in 2010. This recovered paper is used to make new paper products, saving trees and other natural resources.

Electronic products are made from valuable resources and materials, including metals, plastics, and glass, all of which require energy to mine and manufacture. Donating or recycling consumer electronics conserves our natural resources and avoids air and water pollution, as well as greenhouse gas emissions that are caused by manufacturing virgin materials.
