Your home is a treasure trove of items you can reuse, recycle, repurpose, or upcycle.

For starters – reduce your use of water bottles by installing a water filter or a water purifying system. Carry a reusable water bottle for water on the go.

Place foil behind plants in the shade to reflect light on them.

Make a creative scarecrow using CDs. The light reflected will keep birds and critters away from garden.

Line your wastebaskets instead of buying whores plastic bin liners.Donate the jeans you no longer wear to a charity or consignment shop so someone else can use them.

Reduce your paper use: Keep a scrap paper tray in each classroom and make sure both sides of the paper are used.
Recycle high grade paper: High grade paper is collected free of charge from schools by Reclamation Ltd. Classroom paper recycling bins are provided by the recycling team.
Switch to recycled paper: Although recycled paper is still slightly more expensive, if you can reduce your paper use then it may not cost any extra.

Compost food waste : Your school can produce free quality compost from fruit waste, tea bags etc. Contact the recycling team for more information on setting up a school composting scheme.
Switch to rechargeable batteries: For every 10 charges, you have saved buying and throwing away 9 batteries.  Replace batteries in remote controls etc with rechargeable.
Set up an Eco-Team: Students can help to raise awareness and monitor waste and recycling throughout the school.  Ecos can also help to monitor litter and waste free lunch activities.

Vancouver took the protected bike way one step further, turning the typical painted lanes into a planted green way. ]]> 2018-03-14 13:40:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lopiuss524/sustainability/wish/241867878 Let us know below what are you doing for the earth. lopiuss524 https://padlet.com/lopiuss524/sustainability/wish/241877143 Are you a recycling person?
