I learned that recycling plastic is very important to protect the earth. When I am done with a product that is plastic I usually recycle it into the recycling bin. We can look through last year’s school materials. Many items can be reused or recycled.
Purchase and use school supplies made from recycled products, such as pencils made from old blue jeans and binders made from old shipping boxes.

Plastic comes from oil and petroleum. 90% of all things we use in our homes has some plastic component. Most plastic can be easily recycled. Because there are 7 types of plastic, the bottles and other products have numbers on them that tell you which type of plastic that thing is. Different types of plastic are made and recycled differently. When plastic is recycled, they can be made into new products. This conserves energy and materials. When plastic reaches the recycling facilities, it is separated from other recyclable items such as glass and paper. After being turned into new bottles, they are shipped off to businesses. Resources are conserved when businesses use recycled plastics. In its first stages of production, plastic comes in the forms of pellets. Our school and community can become better at recycling plastic by becoming educated about it. We should know how to properly recycle all types of plastic.

I learned that plastic is polyester clothing. We recycle our plastic, into paper, aluminum, and plastic. I don't think this school recycles because they throw all of the things into one bin but who knows. I think that the community does a great job at recycling.

I have learned that plastic bottles have an extensive life. When they are recycled they are crushed and sent through a long process to become things such as shirts or are even recreated into bottles.
