How to Help the Environment

We can help preserving the environment in many ways. However, there are three simple ways to do it. They are called 3R: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.

First of all, we can reduce the usage of any product that harms the environment or make it more polluted. For example, we can reduce our consumption of canned food or food preserved in Styrofoam, plastic, and such.

By Reusing, it means we must try to make use of anything instead of throwing it away. Bring your own plastic bag if yo go shopping, for instance.

Lastly, Whatever we can recycle, recycle it. Before throw something away, think about what another usage it can be. Organic waste may be made organic fertilizer. Milk can may be used for pencil case.
