Ah, the posting number is based on my homepage. You don't need to think too seriously about that :)
Sara explains how she reduces waste, saves money, and helps the environment by making her own laundry detergent. She reuses empty milk jugs and plastic containers collected from friends and family. With a simple recipe using inexpensive ingredients, she saves over $400 per year compared to store-bought detergent. If more families followed her example of reducing, reusing, and recycling, it could save thousands in the community and be good for the economy.
This document discusses waste reduction and recycling efforts at a school. It outlines that paper, cardboard, fruit/vegetable waste, plastic bottles, clothes, books, pens, CDs/DVDs, phones, batteries, toothbrushes, and toothpaste tubes can all be recycled instead of thrown away. The school has bins and collection boxes for these items. Recycling helps raise money for the school and keeps useful materials out of landfills. The document encourages students and staff to recycle and reuse as much as possible to help the environment.
The document discusses various negative effects of littering and illegal dumping of toxic waste. It notes littering can attract rats and disease, harm animals, and act as a fire hazard. Illegal dumping of toxic waste can endanger the health and safety of people and animals, cause dead marine life, abnormal animals, and toxic food and farms. The document also provides tips for conserving energy and water at home, such as reducing shower time, turning off taps when not in use, using fans over air conditioning, and unplugging devices when not in use. It suggests ways to reuse items like plastic bottles, food jars, egg cartons and plastic bags.
The document discusses waste reduction efforts at East Fairhaven School. It explains that producing too much trash is a big problem and outlines the 3Rs - reduce, reuse, recycle.

The document proposes a 4-step project for Bethesda Country Club to become more environmentally friendly. Step 1 involves purchasing reusable water bottles with the club logo to reduce plastic cup usage. Step 2 is to use distinctive blue recycling bags and increase recycling bins to promote proper recycling. Step 3 will install light sensors in unused rooms to reduce electricity. Step 4 is a youth program making crafts from recycled materials to teach environmental awareness. The project aims to save money and resources while benefiting members and the environment.
Costa aims to recycle up to 500 million coffee cups per year by 2020, which would be one cup recycled for every cup sold. This would account for a fifth of all coffee cups used in the UK. Costa will pay waste collectors £70 per tonne of recycled cups. While most UK paper mills cannot currently recycle coffee cups due to their plastic lining, Costa is working to develop a more easily recyclable cup. A trial recycling scheme in a Manchester store found potential as 40 used cups were left daily. Costa's managing director commented on finding an immediate solution to increasing disposable cup volumes.
WonderFoods supermarket implemented a program to reduce plastic bag usage by providing reusable green bags and placing recycling cages in their parking lots. Customers are given green bags during their shopping and can return extra bags to the cages. This eliminates the need for plastic bags and has reduced plastic bag consumption by 80% while promoting the supermarket's eco-friendly image. The initial costs were covered by the supermarket's marketing budget and they expect to recoup their investment within a year.
Slowly governments and businesses are looking for ways to reduce plastic waste in response to public concern about the effects of plastic on marine life highlighted by the TV program Blue Planet 2. While some initial steps have been taken to reduce plastic bags and bottles, much more progress is still needed to curb the tide of plastic pollution. Plastic has infiltrated nearly every aspect of modern life from packaging to electronics to clothing. As consumers have come to expect higher standards of cleanliness and convenience from packaging, it will be challenging but necessary to identify which plastic uses are essential and which could be replaced by alternative materials. Collective action is required to embrace change, accept some loss of convenience, and invest in solutions to clean up the environmental problems caused by
The document discusses how individuals can help preserve the environment through small everyday actions. It notes that plastic bags can be hazardous, especially for children, but paper bags are a safer reusable and recyclable alternative. Paper bags are proven to be sturdier and more water resistant than plastic, and can be used for groceries or gifts. The document emphasizes that many small initiatives, even just within our means, can collectively make a big positive impact on the environment over time.

Somerset Waste Partnership collects waste from over 700 households per day across five local councils in Somerset. They provide weekly collections for food waste and dry recyclables, and fortnightly collections for refuse and garden waste. Since introducing their Sort It recycling campaign in 2004, the amount of waste going to landfill has decreased to less than 40% and recycling rates have increased significantly. Food waste makes up the largest portion of recycled materials.
This document discusses the importance of reducing plastic waste and recycling. It provides statistics on how long it takes common items like plastic bags and bottles to decompose in landfills. It encourages taking personal responsibility to choose reusable shopping bags and water bottles instead of single-use plastic items. Making small changes like these can have a positive impact on the environment.
I think it's very important that we all contribute to sustainable development because otherwise we will destroy our future resources and we stay without water and some natural resource.
This document provides tips for conserving water at home and school, including turning off the tap while brushing teeth or doing dishes, fixing leaks, only running the dishwasher when full, checking for pipe leaks, using rain water when possible, taking showers over baths, not flushing trash, watering at night to reduce evaporation, washing cars with buckets instead of hoses, maintaining lawns at a longer length, installing pool filters that save water, using dual flush toilets, and placing water bottles in tanks to displace water. The overall message is that small changes can help save water through everyday habits.
The document discusses various ways that individuals can help improve water quality in New York City's waterways. It begins by providing background on the types of pollution found in the city's waterways, including plastic and chemicals. It then defines different types of water systems like floatables, stormwater, and wastewater. The document provides examples of everyday actions people can take to reduce pollution from litter, cleaning storm drains, proper disposal of fats/oils/grease, and conserving water. Small changes like shorter showers, turning off the water while brushing teeth, and fixing leaks can collectively save thousands of gallons of water each month.
The document outlines a campaign to raise awareness about waste and promote reducing, reusing, and recycling at Cranford school. It notes the amounts of waste currently found around the school and in classrooms. The campaign aims to encourage students and staff to be more mindful of waste and resources by turning off lights and monitors when not in use, recycling paper and other items, and placing trash in bins rather than on the ground to help create a cleaner school environment and reduce pollution.

Specific examples are given of items that can be reduced, reused, or recycled to help address the growing waste problem and its threats to health, safety, and the environment.
1. Use less energy by turning off lights and electronics when not in use, using more efficient bulbs like CFLs, taking shorter showers, and using appliances like dishwashers and microwaves efficiently.
2. Do not burn wastes and instead dispose of them properly through composting, mulching yard waste, or using waste collection and recycling programs.
3. Reduce waste through choices like using reusable bags and containers, borrowing items, starting a compost bin, printing only what is needed, and turning off lights and water when not in use.
Solid waste includes garbage, refuse, and sludge. Solid waste management involves reducing, reusing, and recycling waste products to improve standards of living and reduce economic and social costs of waste disposal. Effective solid waste management requires changes in individual habits like reusing paper, glass, plastics, and organic waste. It also involves precycling by making purchasing decisions that reduce waste and recycling waste into new goods.

I created this PowerPoint for an grant provided by Broward County on teaching students on how they can integrate the three "R"s of recycling into their everyday activities.
Waste comes in many forms and requires proper management. Solid waste management involves collecting, transporting, processing, recycling, or disposing of waste in a way to reduce health and environmental impacts. Waste is classified in different categories such as municipal solid waste, hazardous waste, industrial waste, and more. Proper waste management practices include reducing waste production, reusing materials, and recycling to lessen environmental pollution and preserve natural resources.
The document discusses the top five most important items to recycle:
1) Aluminum cans which are 100% recyclable and take 95% less energy to recycle than producing new cans.
2) PET plastic bottles, with nearly 80% of the 25 billion water bottles Americans use ending up in landfills each year.
3) Newspaper, which makes up about one-third of municipal solid waste and conserves resources when recycled.
4) Corrugated cardboard, which represented 13.8% of municipal waste in 1996, mostly from commercial uses.
5) Steel cans, as steel can be recycled repeatedly without loss of quality, saving energy equivalent to powering 18 million households
The document provides tips for reducing waste produced from daily activities like traveling to school, showering, using electronics, and reducing household rubbish. It encourages using more sustainable options like walking or cycling to school, taking shorter showers, limiting electronics use, reusing materials, and properly recycling paper, plastic, glass, and metal. Malta has civic amenity sites where residents can dispose of items like furniture, appliances, garden waste, and hazardous materials to increase recycling of secondary materials.
WASTE WASTE MANAGEMENT REDUCE, REUSE AND RECYCLE.pptRajpalJangra2
Waste is a product or substance which is no longer suited for its intended use. Whereas in natural ecosystems waste (i.e. oxygen, carbon dioxide and dead organic matter) is used as food or a reactant, waste materials resulting from human activities are often highly resilient and take a long time to decompose. It contains:-
1. The origin of waste
2. Classification of waste
This document provides guidance for community groups on reducing waste and recycling more. It discusses the problems with landfill and introduces the 3 Rs of reduce, reuse, and recycle. Activities and tips are provided such as conducting a waste audit, making events more sustainable, and playing waste-themed games. The document aims to help groups learn about minimizing rubbish and maximizing recycling.
By understanding the meaning behind the recycle symbols, you’ll be better equipped to help reduce waste, limit your carbon footprint, and help the environment.
With this course you’ll learn:
• Why recycling matters
• What do the numbers inside the recycle symbol mean
• What gets recycled and what doesn’t
• Tips to make recycling fun for your family or workplace
• Want to recycle more? You can recycle these too
• FREE one page PDF that you can print out and post on your recycle bins as a reminder of what goes in and what doesn’t.
The document discusses recycling and Alianza's GREEN Project 2010. It defines recycling as reusing products or materials. Recycling has benefits like reducing pollution, saving energy and trees. The project will have students collect plastic bottles, batteries and caps to recycle. Students will educate their classes about recycling and pick up materials weekly to bring to a recycling factory, playing an active role in caring for the environment. Small recycling efforts individually make a big collective impact.
The document describes the process of recycling plastic bottles. It involves the following steps:
1. Empty plastic bottles are collected and separated from other recyclables at a Materials Recovery Facility.
2. The bottles are compressed into bales and sent to UK reprocessors.
3. The bottles are cleaned, sorted by type of plastic using an optical beam, ground into flakes, and washed. The flakes are then either treated with chemicals or melted down and formed into beads or pellets.
4. These recycled plastic beads and flakes can then be reused to make new products like packaging, pipes, furniture or new bottles.
Recycling helps the environment by reusing materials that would otherwise end up in landfills. The main problem is that not enough recycling programs exist, and many people are unaware of recycling's benefits. Recycling one ton of plastic saves the energy usage of two people for one year. Common materials like plastic, paper, glass and aluminum can be recycled. Humans must work to establish more recycling programs and properly dispose of recyclable items to maintain a healthy environment for future generations.
The document discusses various causes of and solutions to climate change. It explains that planting trees can help reduce greenhouse gases by absorbing carbon dioxide from the air. Saving electricity and recycling products can also help limit greenhouse gas emissions. Additional tips provided include using public transportation, reducing plastic use, composting organic waste, and buying less packaged goods. The document emphasizes the importance of protecting the earth by showing images of environmental damage and a sick planet that may result from climate change if left unaddressed.
The document provides tips for reducing waste and being more environmentally friendly in various situations:
- Bring reusable containers and bags for take-out food and shopping to avoid plastic waste.
- Sort garbage for easier recycling and arrange regular pickup days.
- Use humane traps, hire services, or natural repellents like peppermint oil to safely remove rodents rather than poison.
- Replace single-use paper products with reusable cloth towels, napkins and rags to reduce trash.
- Buy refill packs or reuse bottles to produce less plastic waste from household products.
- Conserve energy by hand washing clothes or running the washer at off-peak hours, and rewearing items
The document thanks their teacher for allowing them to do a presentation on recycling. It helped them research and learn new things. It also thanks parents and friends for helping to complete the project on time. The document discusses the three R's of reduce, reuse, and recycle. It provides examples of items that can be recycled like paper, bottles, cans. It explains the recycling process and benefits of recycling like conserving resources, saving energy, and protecting the environment. The importance of everyone participating in recycling is emphasized.
