I got an idea for this post by looking at Green Guide for kids. Then came up recycling. I looked on google earth day facts and can you believe this? More than 20,000,000 Hershey's Kisses are wrapped each day, using 133 square miles of tinfoil. All that foil is recyclable, but not many people realize it. So the next time you go to throw something away, think to yourself can this be recycled? Poor trees...also, try to help the earth each day, so down in your comments put something you did that helped the earth today. Even if it is something little like turning your lights off. It can help a lot! I went up to my room to see if I could help and write it here and instead I found papers that were recycled to make a school journal, in the journal is papers that say facts you can do, for example :
Show Earth Love, Shut the lights off
Poor Ducks. In the duck pond people throw trash is their pond. Here is a mini poem to help you remember Keep ducks wings safe from plastic rings.
Dolphins need clean ocean water and so do the other sea creatures.
Make a sign above your dirty clothes hamper saying STOP. Clothes still clean? wear them again.
Here are some recycle questions below:
Can you recycle....
newspapers?
magazines?
finished homework?
office papers?
junk mail?
envelopes?
calendars?
cereal boxes?
other boxes as well?
paper grocery bags?

Instead of using a paper lunch bag, you can get a reusable lunchbox! Most of us do! So, Great job, you are already saving the earth and you may already didn't know that!

  1. I like your post. i didn't know that hershey kisses foil is recycleable. today, as my did something nice to the earth, i was thinking how great it is that we reuse paper for scrap paper. i thought maybe i could REALLY use it, and i got through the whole math lesson with one piece of scrap paper!+it was fun seeing how small i could fit my problems in it! i also think you can recycle all of the above (newspapers, magazines... ect) even if the are not made of recycleable paper, you can still use it for crafts and stuff.
