This is an important link because Stewardship and Justice and Solidarity are both important key factors of life that we need to live out.

    The first step is to collect recyclables at a drop off center within the complex. The center should be located near the trash dumpster so residents can make one trip with all their waste. The drop off center should be able to hold the most common household recyclables: plastic, cardboard, and newspaper. Second, we need to recognize the barriers to participation and how to successfully promote residents to accept recycling behaviors. We can design brochures with information about how recycling can benefit the environment. Residents should be informed of the recycling process, the cost benefits, and the reduction of waste in our…

    Recycling has been a well known idea for so many years, but now we need it more than ever. Now in the world there are so many problems with the environment like Global Warming, toxic waste, and not to mention not recycling is very costly but recycling reduces the landfill space, helps conserves natural resources, and reduces the production of greenhouse gases . When you recycle you also help save animals so the rims of a six pack of soda doesn’t end up blocking a fish's gills or a plastic bag getting eaten by a turtle and having it choke on the bag. Recycling can also be a group effort where you get a group of people from your community, school, church, job, or just you and your friends so not only your saving the environment but your having fun with people you know while doing it.…

Other ways include recycling centers, projects for turning your no longer useable items into recycled treasures. I firmly believe in adopting and putting these into practice in our United States with only minor changes. We only have one earth so we have to take care of it.…

    My high school has become an everyday landfill. This has no relation to the school administrators or teachers. Trash such as gum, plastic wrappers, and bottles was being littered haphazardly everywhere on school grounds; especially, in the cafeteria, hallways, and restrooms. The most inevitable issue in my high school was the problem with students littering their gums. Gum filled with germs and bacteria can be found on the grounds of the campus, under the desks, and chairs. My school had become very unpleasant and filthy. With the thought of helping the school, I made a short visit to my school's principal and advocated to start a "recycling" activity.…
