Recycling is very important to the environment. Recycling is the act of taking one thing that is old and turning it into another, new thing.

Take care of the earth by recycling and composting. You can also limit trash by buying recyclables. If you cannot find one, use reusable things instead of single-use plastics.

Reduce means to cut back on the amount of trash we generate. Reuse means to find new ways to use things that otherwise would have been thrown out. Recycle means to turn something old and useless (like plastic milk jugs) into something new and useful (like picnic benches, playground equipment and recycling bins).

Litter is bad because if the fish eat it and they find the fish that ate it, they would not know that the fish ate the micro-plastics and then they would sell it and a person will eat it then get sick.

Recycling is good because it's better for the environment. If we don't recycle, animals can eat the plastic and die. If an animal eats it and we eat the animal-like if you eat fish-the fish could have eaten plastic pollution and you can get sick.
