European Union Directive suggested 3 simple steps to help the environment. The 3 simple steps are to reduce‚ reuse and recycle (3R’s). The first step is to reduce the use of natural resources by cutting down its use around our houses and schools. For example‚ the wastage of electricity can be cut down by switching off lights and equipments that are not needed. By saving electricity we reduce the use of coal which is a naturally occurring resource that is quickly being used up. The use of solar

We produce more plastic than can ever be recycled. Plastic is the hardest item to recycle‚ the process is very difficult. This is because the heat it takes to melt down plastic is hard to achieve and the oils that are produced affect the process. We use two million plastic bottles every five minutes in the United States alone. We have

are many good reasons to reduce‚ reuse and recycle. Everything we use has to come from somewhere and must go somewhere once we’re finished with it.

It also reflects the energy used in the item’s production and the impact it will have when we use it and throw it away. By making smart decisions about what we buy and how we get the most out of our purchases‚ we can work together to reduce the amount of waste we

products is often called the “3Rs.” Reducing means choosing to use items with care to reduce the amount of waste generated while reusing involves the repeated use of items or parts which still have usable aspects and recycling means the use of waste itself as resources. Eisenberg (2008) suggested that “reduce” as the starting point of 3R‚ and it to be the most crucial and effective factor of 3R. However‚ “reduce” is also the most difficult step to be conducted since it requires giving up and letting

Some believe that pollution causes global warming‚ but the fact is global warming is the result of burning fossil fuels‚ coal‚ and oil that release carbon dioxide. Another misconception is nuclear power causes climate change. Nuclear power actually reduces emissions of carbon dioxide when used in place of coal. Some believe that global warming means that it will become warmer all over. The name is misleading because in some places‚ it will actually become colder. The majority of scientists believe global
