America Recycles Day is November 15th. Recycling plastic water bottles helps conserve natural resources and prevents plastic from ending up in landfills or as litter. For more details on recycling programs and guidelines, contact the Trashline at 703-257-8252 or visit www.manassascity.org/trash.
Recycling helps reduce pollution and conserve natural resources by turning used materials like paper, metals, glass and plastics into new reusable products. It saves energy compared to producing goods from raw materials, and protects wildlife by reducing litter. Community members can recycle common items like newspapers, aluminum cans, plastic bottles and cardboard at home by placing them in designated containers, which are then sold to factories to manufacture new recycled products.
A brochure with few handmade ideas, some promoting specifically the usage of the recycled materials, that resulted from the "Reuse or Lose" project that took place between 9 - 16 March 2013, in Muncelu de Sus, Romania. The project was financed through the Youth in Action programme
The document discusses waste management and the 3Rs concept of reduce, reuse, recycle. It notes that waste production has increased significantly with disposable items and manufacturing. Rubbish is typically sent to landfills, but this causes problems like methane emissions and using up limited space. The 3Rs are presented as better solutions to send less to landfills. Reduce calls for making and buying less. Reuse involves using items again or giving them to charity. Recycling breaks down old materials to make new items, with the recycling process described.
The document discusses waste and provides statistics on the amount of waste produced daily in the United States from various sources such as cell phones, cigarette packs, plastic cups, and aluminum cans. It encourages reducing, reusing, and recycling to minimize waste and includes tips for doing so such as replacing disposables with reusable items, donating usable goods, renting instead of buying new, and participating in local recycling programs. Specific reusable items mentioned include grocery bags, bottles, magazines, clothing, and batteries. The document emphasizes that recycling keeps useful materials from ending up in landfills and stresses that environmental protection requires individual action from each person.
Rubrics are assessment tools used to evaluate student work based on predefined criteria. They provide consistent grading by removing subjectivity and clearly communicating expectations. There are two main types - analytic rubrics break performance into multiple criteria while holistic rubrics assess performance as a whole. Scoring can be text-based or numeric. Instructors can create rubrics in Desire2Learn and tie them to gradebook items and activities to standardize grading.
The document discusses Earth Day, which is celebrated annually on April 22nd. It explains that Earth Day is a day to remember to take care of our planet by keeping it clean. Some ways to keep the planet clean include following the "reduce, reuse, recycle" rule. This means reducing resource use, reusing items instead of throwing them away, and recycling materials like aluminum, paper, and plastic. The document emphasizes that we must make efforts to care for the Earth every day, not just on Earth Day, in order to make a difference.
