So, how can children recycle paper, I mean, everyday?
By saving water.
Well, how can we do that?
When drinking or eating something outside, you should keep the garbage until you find a trashcan to put it in because littering makes our planet dirty. Do you like seeing trash all over the ground?
That's great. Well thanks Alex for your ideas.
Well, for example, when I was in kindergarten, I used to save the newspapers so that I could make things make out of them, like paper trees, instead of just throwing them away. Now, the children in our neighborhood collect newspapers once a month to take them to a recycling center.
No, I don't. Do you have any final suggestions?
By not using too much water when we wash dishes, take a bath, and when we do other thing, like watering plants outside.
Today, I’m interviewing nine-years old Alex about her feelings on how people can help save the environment. So, Alex, how can we save the environment?
Yes. We shouldn't waste paper because trees are being cut down to make the paper. By recycling paper, we save the forests where animals live.
Oh, I think I can do that. What else?
